To Love Is To Obey

“We know that we have come to know Him if we keep His commands.”  -1 John 2:3

“In fact, this is love for God: to keep His commands. And His commands are not burdensome”  -1 John 5:3

To “be” a Christian is more than just believing in Christ, it is obeying Christ.  All that is required for salvation is belief (Acts 16:31), however if belief is true belief it will be accompanied with action.  “We know that we have come to know Him if we keep His commands.”

Dear Lord,

Teach Your people to show their love with actions and obedience.  Teach us to love You by loving others and obeying Your leadings.

Amen
