from crazy love by francis chan:
"...when we love God, we naturally run to Him. Jesus didn't command us to have a regular time with Him each day. Rather, He tells us to 'love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind'...The results are intimate prayer and study of His Word. Our motivation changes from guilt to love."
what a refreshing reminder...so many days, it is a struggle to have a "quiet time"...but if I love my Lord with the same fervor that I love max or joey, how could i not want to spend time with Him? how could I not show Him my love in this way?

love this! I feel the same way about struggling with quiet times...oh and love the date gift ideas! clever :)
here's some lyrics to one of my all-time fave songs. i sang this on sunday ...
"when Satan tempts me to despair
and tells me of the guilt within ...
upward I look and see Him there
who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
my sinful soul is counted free"
