Like A Tea Bag

Saturday, December 11, 2021

Did you ever make tea? You put the tea bag in hot water and let it sit. It takes time. Some believers treat God like fast food. They run in, have a Word, and then run out. They put the tea bag in, take it out, and then complain there is no tea. That is how we act with the Lord. We come in and out of God's love, Word and prayer quickly. God's love is not fast food. His love is more like the tea bag principle; it takes time. We are the water; His love; truth and presence is the tea bag. His righteousness is the tea. You have to let it soak in through the junk of the past, the emotions, and the scars. You need to be touched deeply. Spend time in God's presence. Let God's presence dwell and remain in your life. Let the peace, love, joy and purity of God soak into and penetrate your heart and emotions. The love, word and presence of God are so good; you need to give it time. It's like tea, and you need to soak it up.rn
