bye seventides. You have to do whatever helps you follow HIm and throw aside all that hinders. May God's grace and peace be with you always.

Yes, I agree!  I've also found it spririt warming, meeting others who love Jesus. I have so little fellowship, due to my circumstances and the coldness of the church. :'(Fellowship stirrs up my love for Jesus and spurrs me on to keep following Him when i'm lagging. I have so little time to pray too. This is genuine, not just an exuse. I find that regularly i have to cry out desperately to God to restore my love for Him. He keeps us though, doesn't He?
    'Never let my heart grow cold,
    Lord help me to love you with a love that never dies.
    Set my heart ablaze with a burning desire,
    To see Jesus glorified.'
