How Much Do You Love God?

Deuteronomy 6:5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

Do you love the Lord with all your heart, soul, and might? Is it possible to love Him a little bit or conveniently? Here’s what Jesus says about love.

John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

Obeying God's commandments proves that you love the Lord. You will have a joy only Jesus can give and live a victorious life. But sometimes believers allow that love to grow cold. Things of God begin to take second place with whatever is pushing Him aside. It happens to all of us at some time or other.

The Lord in his love and grace is waiting for you to talk to Him. Ask Him to help you. Rededicate your life to Him. Joy thrives on renewed fellowship.

People need to see the radiance of our love for the Lord because it may be the only time they see God in action. Our children need to see it because they imitate us.
