The Proof Of Your Love

Do you believe in your country? If yes, you will abide by the laws of the land and be a patriotic citizen. Do you love your wife or husband? How can we know? Simple. You will believe in her and encourage her to be the best. More importantly, you will do everything to protect her integrity privately and publicly. You will not want to disgrace her or him openly.

How Do You Know That You Really Love God?
Jesus Christ was about finishing his earthly ministry. In one of the sessions He had with the disciples as He gave valedictory message, they were reminded of one principle that will make their faith endure. The principle will give them confidence and attract the blessings of God.
If you have believed for quite sometime and keep on wandering how you can be sure that you really love God. Christ gave the answer. Hear Him 'If ye love me, keep my commandments'. So pure and sublime. There is no confusion about it.
The master you are loyal to is the one you obey.
Remember the greatest commandments? Love God and love your neighbour as yourself.
All other commandments are directly attached to those.
If you are loyal to God, you will be good to men. They will see your light as it shines and glorify your father which is in heaven.
As you go along in your daily activities today, remember one thing that 'he that saith I know him and keepeth not his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him'.
