I agree with you about what our relationship is based on. However, I think we need to have a little more emotion in it, a little more passion for God.

My relationship with Him is not BASED on emotion, rather what He did for us, but He is our Abba, our Father, and we are the Bride of Christ.

Most people I know are excited about the person they are marrying.

No problem with passion for Christ. After all, His passion was for us first.

The issue I have is that too often, people substitute “falling in love with God” for a proper interpretation of what it means to be Christian (and I’m not saying you do that by any stretch).

The result is a seeker-centered worship rather than placing our worship emphasis where it belongs, which is on Christ.
