40-Love


If you've ever played tennis... you would know it's quite the sport. One moment you are pumped up and just making amazing shots, and dominating your opponent. And the next you are running all over the court and not even coming close to hitting the ball, and you get frustrated. I wonder if we could relate our relationships with Jesus to tennis. Sometimes, we aren't facing too many obstacles, and it seems like you could go and just... conquer the world with Jesus. It feels like every thing is going your way, and it's like a spiritual mountaintop. But... some days, it feels like you are the one running to chase the ball. And we get frustrated. But the beautiful thing is, whether you are on a mountaintop, or in a low valley, Jesus created all of them. And He is right there with you. And just like in a tennis match... sometimes, you will get hurt. Sometimes you will get frustrated. Sometimes you will be totally in love (love means 0 points in tennis!). But, Jesus is always there... and always will be.
