Luke 5:4-6


When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch."

Simon answered and said, "Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I WILL DO AS YOU SAY and let down the nets."

When they had done this, they enclosed a great quantity of fish, and their nets began to break.." Luke 5:4-6

when you are in love

"when somebody loved me
everything was beautiful
every hour we spent together
lives within my heart" From Disney's Toy Story 2, "When Somebody loved me"

When you're in love, only thing you think about is that "somebody".
Our passion, heart, and focus is solely with that person.
But when that love drifts away, my primary focus rests on myself.

Pride is to be totally obssessed with myself. Self-absorbtion.
"I" become the focal point of my life and I matter the most.
I constantly seek importance of myself and I become my ultimate passion.

If I say I have a passion for God and His ministry, I need to be humble, I have to become self-forgotten and emptied. And that self-lessness comes only when i am lost in love with God.

I need to understand His love, His passion for me. And that has to be my only motivation to serve God.

"My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself wih great matters or things too wonderful for me. But I have calmed myself and quieted my ambitions. I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content. Israel, put your hope in the Lord both now and forevermore."(Ps. 131)
