I prayed time I was walking up a height in Glorieta, New Mexico. As I reached the summit, I meditated on John 21:15-17 where Jesus asked Peter if he wanted Him. How would I answer that question?

Do you be keen on Me? \\"I observe you, Lord, so I essential admiration you.\\"

Do you be keen on Me? \\"I listen in to you when you cry to me.\\"

Do you esteem Me? \\"I don\\'t cognize how.\\"

I had not idolized God as I should: beside all my heart, and with all my soul, and near all my strength, and with all my mind; and my neighboring as myself, as tutored in Luke 10:27. I cried a time and asked God for His training in the constituency of liking.

As I started downstairs the mountain, I walked a bit too ambient to a pine away ligneous plant and my body part snapped off a branch. I was astonished at how powdery it was. But not all the branches were that way. Those that still had vivacity in them were malleable and tender. Then I detected that the branches short duration had been damaged and were not stably related to to the tree. It reminded me of Jesus\\' linguistic unit in John 15 where He says, \\"I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me, and I in him, he bears more fruit; for unconnected from Me you can do nix. If everyone does not stay on in Me, he is thrown distant as a branch, and dries up.\\" As I stay on in Him, God\\'s worship can fill me and manufacture me sentimental. Then I revise not one and only how to respect God, but also how to be mad about others.
