Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

Amen 🙏

When we love someone, we try to please him or her.✨

As children, we should obey our parents, not out of fear, but out of love and respect.✨

Even dogs know what means to please someone they love.✨

A dog who loves his master will risk his very life to please his master.✨

Dogs have been known to do impossible tasks because of love.✨

So have people, for that matter.✨

It stands to reason that if even dogs understand this concept, so should we.✨

If we say we love Christ, then we obey His teachings.✨

Conversely, if we don’t obey His teachings, then we can’t say we love Him.✨

It’s a very simple concept.✨

The bonus in this instance is that, not only will we please Christ, but we will please the Father.✨

We are also promised that both the Father and the Son will make their home with us if we are obedient.✨

Simple obedience. Such a small price to pay for love.✨

Father, Help me to obey Your teachings. ✨

I love you and I desire to please You in all things.✨

Help me to be obedient even when my flesh is weak.✨

Help me to honor You by doing Your will because I love You.✨

Amen.🙏
