Verse of the Day:  John 14:23           

Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”           

If you really love Jesus, obey His teachings and His commands. Saying you love Him is easy, anyone can say they love Jesus, proving you do is another matter. When you understand and appreciate what Jesus did for you at the cross it changes you, you’re no longer the same. Having a real relationship with your Lord and Savior becomes a lifestyle not just a Sunday event. True love and gratitude responds in obedience, dedication, and passion. Open your heart to God and invite Him into every part of your life and into everything you do.

Lord, I am so grateful for Your love and mercy, please forgive me for the times I have not been obedient to Your Word. I invite You into my heart and into every part of my life. Be with me and help me to live a life of obedience and dedication. Amen.
