I feel compelled...

When we say we love the Lord, it means many things to many of God's people. Some are of the view that loving God is to be an effective witness for Him. For some even going to church, reading the bible, and praying for others are perceived as loving God whereas in reality it is done for the wellbeing of one's own soul.

What it means to really love God? Does it end just with verbal expression or goes beyond that? Yes, it does and we all know that. Our love for God compels us to be all that God wants us to be, live the way He wants us to and do His perfect will in every aspect of our lives. For we no longer live for ourselves but for Him who died and rose for us; who is at God's right hand interceding for us and desires to reach out to others through us.

The next time when we say we love Him (Jesus), let's check ourselves whether we truly do? If we did ...then we will strive our best to do His will...

1 Peter 4:2 (New Living Translation)

You won’t spend the rest of your lives chasing your own desires, but you will be anxious to do the will of God.

  1. So pure that He is, His love when realized in full... washes us to be perfect in His eyes by his Grace...

    But to remain in His Love... we need to walk in His ways... aligning our thoughts and acts, the way He has already planned... AGAIN by His Grace...

    Wonderful again, my Dear wife...

    Love

  2. In Mark, Chapter 3, Jesus says to the people, "Those who do the will of God are my mothers and brothers and sisters".
