6. Love or Doctrine

Anything we talk about but don’t actually experience soon becomes boring and uninteresting. In fact, something happens to us psychologically after we have talked about something for a time but not really experienced it; we convince ourselves that we actually tried it and it wasn’t that great! Many people talk about the love of God for years and then find themselves disillusioned, empty, and searching for things to satisfy their longing for His deep love. If asked why they walked away from God, they would say something like this, “I tried that God thing; it just wasn’t what I was looking for!” Those are always the words of someone who had the doctrine without the experience. Join me this week and begin the shift from talking about God’s love to experiencing it!
