It is a moment of great revelation when one realizes that it is not so much what Jesus wants FROM me to - Jesus loves me and just wants me.
" ... the Son of God who loved me, and gave Himself up for me."

I am speaking from experience. I always thought in terms of what God wants me to do or things like that. One day it dawned upon me that He loved me and first of all just wanted me. He wanted my heart.
So I just often say "Lord Jesus, I love You." Loving Jesus is the most prevailing way to be a Christian.
Then all our doing will spontaneously flow out of opening chamber after chamber of our hearts letting Christ make His home in our hearts.
I admire much artistic effort. But I have found that the greatest art is the art of one opening up himself more and more for Jesus Christ to make His home in his whole being.

Praise the Lord.

That is a complete fabrication and is very misleading to those who do not know the Bible. I guess you will pay for misleading the innocent when your time comes.
The Bible says :
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. (John 14:23-24 KJV)
Love for Christ is demonstrated by keeping His commandments. If the Christian keeps Christ'w words only then will Christ and God love him and make their abode with him.
Your doctrine is mouth worship and hypocrisy which is condemned by Christ.
Anyway God knows how to guide the righteous away from false teachers.

Have you decided if you are, or ever been, a Chrisitan?
I am still seeking, and am not in any rush to place a label on my beliefs or spirituality.

You crucify Jesus Christ .. therefore you are the Pharisee.
You believe that you can continue with sin and its no big deal. But those who continue with sin the Bible says of these Christians:
For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. (Hebrews 6:4-6 KJV)
See that ? Those who continue with sin crucify Jesus all over again.
