You sound like it's a BUNCH of WORKS that we should be doing according to God's plan....
What did Jesus say to the Church of Ephesus? Wasn't it something about ALL OF YOU ARE BUSY DOING A LOT OF GOOD WORKS BUT, NOT WHAT I WANT....YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ME HAS BECOME NOTHING BUT WORKS......
I WANT FIRST LOVE MORE THAN WORKS. RETURN TO YOUR FIRST LOVE, DO WHAT YOU DID WHEN YOU LOVED ME AT THE FIRST.
Revelation 2:1-7 King James Version (KJV)
2 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
