God has feelings, too

Last night I had an epiphany. As you know, I just finished reading The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands by Dr. Laura. Her basic premise is "men have feelings, too." When I shared that concept with my teen Sunday School class, my 15-year-old daughter piped up, "Yeah, but, like, who cares?" If we are honest, we must admit that sometimes we ladies treat men like they don't have feelings, and if they do, who cares. Dr. Laura says we can't continue to ignore our husbands, treat them like they're our last priority, and withhold our affection without it eventually harming the marriage. Last night the thought came to me, "God has feelings, too." How long can we ignore Him, withhold our affection from Him, disregard everything He says, and make Him our last priority before it begins to harm our relationship with Him? We need to love Him like He deserves to be loved. How His heart must be grieved when we treat Him like He doesn't have any feelings, like we really don't care even if He did.
