When We Love the Lord

When we love the Lord we do not sit around and try to figure out which of His commandments we do not have to obey. “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” John 14:15

When we love the Lord we do not seek excuses to stay away from worship services. Love says, “I was glad when they said to me, Let us go to the house of the Lord.” Ps. 122:1

When we love the Lord we do not discount the importance of Bible study or Bible classes. “The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” John 6:63 Remember David, he said the word of God was his meditation all the day because he loved it so much.

When we love the Lord we do not try to find out how little we can do. “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” 1 Cor. 15:58

When we love the Lord we do not try to figure out how little we can give. Remember the woman who was a sinner anointing the feet of Jesus with precious ointment. “Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much…” Luke 7:47

“O how I love Jesus, O how I love Jesus, O how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me”

Love never feels that it has done too much for its benefactor.
