Trust and Obey

We need a self-sacrificing, self-denying, unconditional, unchanging, unending love for Christ permeating every area of our lives. Then we will be in a place to deomstrate to the lost world that Jesus is all He claims to be.

Psalm 31:19 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

Is it enough for us to say, "I love the Lord?" True love for the Lord always manifests itself in trust  and obedience.

If we want to be happy in Jesus, if we want the world to see Christ in us; trust and obey Him.

But we never can prove the delights of His love

Until all on the altar we lay;

For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows

Are for them who will trust and obey

John H. Sammis,1887
