Reckless

I woke up and sat up on my bed this morning and decided, I had arrived at church.  You see my church is one of those great churches that you can watch the services live. I really like that you can do praise and worship right along with the service.  We have a 9 am and an 11 am service and I was not sure if both could be streamed live or just one.  So, about five minutes before the first service started  I went and checked online. I was glad to find out both services are live streamed.  I was not as happy to find out the new series we were starting was titled: Marriage needs a plan: Mutual Submission. I was immediately glad I had decided to watch the television from home. My plan was to leave the 9 am service on in the background while I finished breakfast and did some house work.  I should have know from the new song we learned today, which was:

                                                                      Reckless Love
                                                               by Corey Ashbury


that there was a message in this for even me, a single. The title is what threw me off, with  marriage and submission in the title. My mind is thinking those two words have nothing to do with me, why would I want to listen.  A long while back, I said I wanted to be the best I could for my future partner. So, I thought to myself, I will go ahead and watch the service and file in my memory for later use, when I am married.  Beside, once you are in a marriage and things start going awry, it's hard to hear a message intended for you. I mean, God says in his word if you ask he will answer, who is to say it has to be  while you are going through the hard times.  It is just as possible God can give you answers before to equip you. The message today was about staying in love beyond the fire works and butterflies, after the "falling in love", the honeymoon is over. I actually got a lot from this message.
