Saints in Mexico enjoying hymn 82 “O how I love Him! How I adore Him!”
The church in Ephesus had many good works and was even strong in faith, but the Lord rebuked her by saying, “I have one thing against you, that you have left your first love” (v. 4). They had lost the fresh and best love toward the Lord. This started the degradation of the churches. When we lose our love for the Lord, we start to backslide. We must go to the Lord and make a deal with Him: “Lord, be merciful to me! I do not need anything or anyone else but Your loving self. Simply show me Yourself! Draw me that we may run after You. O Lord, show me Your love that I might be constrained by Your love! I do not want to do anything for You, Lord. I just want to love You. I just want to take You as my person. I want Your personality as my personality, Your will as my will, Your desires as my desires. I want Your everything as my everything.” (Life and Building as Portrayed in the Song of Songs, Chapter 2)
