Our First Love

Philippians 3:7-8

Put your name in the blanks.

The very credentials these people are waving around as something special, I, _____________am tearing

up and throwing out with the trash, along with everything else I,_________________ used to take credit

for. And why? Because of Christ. Yes, the very things I, ______________ once thought were so

important are gone from my life. Compared to the high privilege of knowing Christ Jesus as my 

Master firsthand,  everything    I,_______________ once thought I,______________ had going for me is

insignificant dog dung. (MSG)  

Truthfully now, is Christ really the most important thing in our life? Why? Why not?

Prayer: Lord, we are failing this test miserably. Refresh our memory. Remind us again of our first love.  Amen
