What Robs You of Your Affection for Christ?

Matt Chandler wrote something that was really convicting for me, listing what inspires him toward, and what robs of, his affection for Christ. I can relate with every single item that Matt mentioned as a robber of his affection for our Savior. Most of us spend the majority of time completing meaningless tasks and pursuing activities that add very little, if any, value to our lives or to the lives of those God has placed around us. Matt’s list looked something like this:

  1. Watching too much TV and spending too much time online
  2. Staying up late for no reason
  3. Following sports too closely
  4. Being physically lazy
  5. Empty conversations (talking for hours about nothing)
  6. Idleness

What robs you of your affection for Christ?
