Lukewarm

My Sunday School class is doing "Crazy Love" over the next few weeks and God has been showing me so many things.This week, we are studying what it means ot be lukewarm. Ugh! Nothing more nauseating than lukewarm. Reminds me of..........

...............cup of coffee that has been sitting all day
...............being so sore and dirty, getting into the shower and realizing there is very little hot water left and I am stuck with a lukewarm shower
...............Feeling passionate about something, explaing that to someone and they just give you that blank I-could-care-less-about-anything-you-just-said look. FRUSTRATING!
..............A scorching July day, a clear sparkling pool that you dive into, and as you splash into it, you realize that the water is not cool and refreshing, but lukewarm and almost suffocating. Ugh! you feel better outof the water than in.

My favorite description is this on on page 70-

"Lukewarm people are moved by people who do radical things for Christ,yet they do not act.They assume such actions are for "extreme" Christians not average ones. Lukewarm people call "radical" what Jesus expected of His followers."
