If You Love Me
Feb. 18, 2009


    For a long time, I had trouble with this statement.  Although, the statement itself is fairly simple, I didn't fully understand what God
    meant by "keep My commandments".   After all, loving someone doesn't mean that we have to always obey them.  Does it?  It didn't
    seem fair to me to tell my friends or family that "if you love me, you will do what I say," but this is what I thought that God was saying
    to me.  

    However, by doing that, I was taken completely off track.  What God is actually saying is, "If you love me, then you will choose to keep
    my commandments.  You will choose to walk away from the things that grieve me.  You will choose not to disappoint me.  You will
    choose to walk with me and not away from me.  For how can two walk together unless they agree?

    I hope you enjoyed reading the word of God in a new light.  Have a Happy Wednesday!

    God Bless,
