Our greatest desire is that you will keep on loving others as long as life lasts in order to make certain that what you hope for will come true. Then you will not become spiritually dull and indifferent. –Hebrews 6:11-12 (NLT)
CURE TO INDIFFERENCE AND DULLNESS
A poem and essay by ILMA
When one becomes isolated and caters to himself
He doesn’t care for others nor does he want help
When someone stops caring and loving
He sets himself up for trouble and suffering.
God made humans to be in relationships
The cure to indifference is loving kinship
Go out there and make yourself vulnerable
God will never forsake you in times of trouble.

Why does God emphasize the importance of keeping our hearts pure and guarding it? The bible says that God is love and that he made us out of love. We are all commanded to follow our default setting, which is “to love.” When we do not love others, we are not obeying and honoring God.
We are also asked to keep on loving others for as long as life lasts to ensure that what we hope for will come to reality. Loving others endlessly is the cure to spiritual dullness and indifference. The opposite of love isn’t hate. It is indifference. When we do not love, we risk becoming indifferent and dull.
PRAYER
Lord, protect me from indifference.
REFLECTION
How do you guard yourself from becoming indifferent?

Our great desire is that you will keep on loving others as long as life lasts, in order to make certain that what you hoped for will come true. Then you will not become spiritually dull and indifferent.–Hebrews 6:11-12(NLT)
ANTIDOTE TO INDIFFERENCE
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you full of life or are you indifferent?
Do you live life in peace or in discontent?
Is your spirit seeking God’s kingdom?
Are you passive and living in boredom?
Keep on loving others as long as life lasts
It will bring you victory and make you pass
Your life will be full of hope and have meaning
Loving is the antidote to indifference and sinning.
In weddings, we hear couples declare their vows of love. It is the greatest feeling a person could ever experience. To have someone promise to commit to love you is usually what most people dream about their entire lives. This is because God designed us for love. The world has polluted our genuine desire for love and the enemy has thwarted our priorities by making us gratify ourselves rather than love others. Hate is not the opposite of love, indifference is.
The antidote to indifference is love. Without it, we become spiritually dull and indifferent. When we love God and others, we don’t feel discontent or emptiness. We enjoy life.
PRAYER
Lord, keep me focused on loving.
REFLECTION
How can “love” prevent us from being indifferent?
