Do you really love God or just enjoy His creation, your life, your free will, your family, desires, stuff?
Do we realize, think about, and acknowledge the Magnitude and Glory of Gods Amazing Creation?
How often do we Praise God, the creator of Heaven and Earth, humanity, and every living thing-perfectly.
It is simply Amazing how detailed and Ordered His creation is. Think about Nature and how our bodies are designed. Simply Perfect. Amazing.
With that being said, let's go back to the question: do we love God or just what He's done?
As we get to know and Love God, we will desire to obey and serve Him- out of love for Him.
We will want others to know about Him.
Our love for others will grow.
Jesus says the first and greatest commandment is to: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind.
God's Love for us is not determined by our "works" (what we "do" for Him).
This is what we should strive for daily:
How to Love God with all our heart, soul and mind.
Christianity (being a Jesus Christ follower) is a life long process.
God wants a relationship with us. You may have heard this before. It may sound trivial bc you've heard it many times.
Let it sink in. God desires a relationship with you.
Relationships require lots of communication, and trust.
The All Powerful God, Creator of the universe wants you to talk to Him, and trust Him- about anything and everything
He wants you to know Him, by reading His word, the Holy Bible.
This post is changing. Like I said before, I'm committed to being Spirit-led with this Blog, and in life. That's why this post is changing, and why I will post when I do~ because i'm trusting God with this and want everyone to know and Love God.
I have had to hold myself back a lot.
That's a very good thing. I pray for MORE of GOD- Less of me.
The second greatest command: (matt.22:34-40) These 2 commandments sum up the ten commandments. (Deut.,Gal.,Rom.)
Love your neighbor as yourself. (Neighbor: person who is next to you; always. Wherever you go, there's your neighbor.)
Translation: Love everyone, all the time.
i dont think we realize how Selfish we really are.
It's bad. Not a pretty sight. But God still Loves us. There's no changing His LOVE for us.
We have an Amazing God! God is Love (try and wrap your mind around that)
So back to our question, again: Do you really love God, or do you just love His stuff?
Jesus says, "If you love me, obey me." -even if we don't understand everything?- yes.
Trust and obey~ there is no other way~ to be happy in Jesus~ but to trust and obey (a song i learned as a child, and a light for my path).
How much we do for God doesn't matter, if we aren't doing what He asks of us.
God wants us to LOVE and serve Him and others.
Daily.This may seem scary to you.
God's Love for you is so great! Don't be afraid that He will ask something of you that you won't want to do.
"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4
His desires will become our desires.
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. Col.2:6
