Faithful or Fickle?

I can forget my house keys or cell phone. That’s understandable.

Forgetting that the LORD is my first love? How could I?

Why would I?

God loved us first.

“We love him, because he first loved us 1 John 4:19 NASB).”

God’s love is beyond my comprehension; it goes against logic.

“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8 NASB).”

Young love is often fickle. One in the relationship jilts the other leaving them brokenhearted. Am I faithful or fickle?

Was Jesus Judas’s first love? We do know that Judas betrayed Jesus; Peter denied Him.

“I know your deeds and your labor and perseverance, and that you cannot tolerate evil people, and you have put those who call themselves apostles to the test, and they are not, and you found them to be false; and you have perseverance and have endured on account of My name, and have not become weary. But I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Therefore, remember from where you have fallen, and repent (Revelation 2:2-5a NASB).”

Judas didn’t repent; guilty of betrayal, he took his own life. In contrast, Peter demonstrated his love with repentance, endurance, and faithfulness to Jesus.

How could I forsake Him?

Jesus is my first love; He never fails me.
