THE DAY I STOPPED BEING A LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN
Standing in my office
Staring at the phone
My hands shaking
My spirit breaking
The text from my wife:
"I can't do church anymore"
Hit me like Goliath's sword
See, I'd been playing both sides:
• Sunday warrior
• Weekday coward
• Bible on shelf
• Porn on phone
"Because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth"
- Revelation 3:16 KJV
That verse haunted me
But I ignored it
Until that text
That night
On my knees
First real prayer in years:
"Lord, I'm done playing"
His response?
Thunder?
Lightning?
Angels?
No.
Just quiet truth:
"If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily"
- Luke 9:23 KJV
Simple command
Hard truth
Clear choice
That night I:
• Deleted apps
• Burned bridges
• Chose sides
My wife's response?
Tears
But not of sadness
Of recognition
She saw a man
Finally becoming
What God ordained
Truth:
Half-surrender
Is full rebellion
Your marriage
Your children
Your legacy
Hang on this
Choose:
• Hot or cold
• Light or darkness
• God or world
No middle ground
No compromise
No excuses
"As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD"
- Joshua 24:15 KJV
Your move.
