They are made so well. They make your butt look awesome. The name brand is stamped right on the pocket, so everyone can see that you can afford them. They show off your shoes perfectly.
On a bummer day, they make you feel better, and your perfect pair of jeans can even make you feel empowered.
Now let's talk bout your underwear. Awkward, right? Nonetheless, you depend on them. You have them every single day. No matter what. (Or I hope you do at least...) They are a given, and a habit.
Enough said.
How often do we treat Jesus like our favorite pair of jeans? How often do we let him come around when it's convenient? Or we FEEL like we need him? Often we use him as an excuse, or a trophy... never really believing completely in him. We hide behind him and try to make ourselves look better. Then when the next cool pair of jeans come along, we put him in a drawer.
So why don't we make a habit of him? Why don't we practice having faith, and being faithful? HE should always be the first thing in our hearts and minds, every day.
He might not always make us feel like a million bucks, and sometimes it feels like he's not even there. But he is. Always. Eternally. He loves us. More than a boyfriend or girlfriend. A mother or father. He wants us to meditate and cling to him day and night.
I think I've said enough :)
