Love God, Obey Him

Scripture: 1 John 5:3 This is love for God: to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome.

Observation: If I truly love God I will want to please Him and do it with a joyful heart. God loves me and the commands He gives me is for my own good, they are not a burden, but an opportunity to please Him.

Application: I need to be aware of all God’s commands and memorize and meditate on them. Start each day aware of what God wants and to live in a way to honor and please Him. To obey God is my purpose in life and the more I do, the closer I will come to Him.

Prayer: My Lord put your Word into my heart and open my eyes to all you want from me. May I please you this day and make you proud.
