How we show that we love God

LOVING God is not an intellectual exercise. As his servants from around the world can confirm, the true love for God grows as we know his personality and is strengthened when we know who loves or hates, as well as what their preferences and requirements. worship.

In your great love, Lord has given us his word, the Bible, which reveals himself to humanity and tells us how he handled different situations. As we are delighted with the letter of a loved one, enjoy also the Bible, because we discover new aspects of the divine personality in it.

However, as we sometimes see in our Ministry, that someone learn about God does not mean that you will love it. Jesus said some ungrateful Jews of his time: "you are searching the Scriptures, because you think that through them they will have eternal life; [...] but I know that they do not have God's love in you"(John 5:39, 42). Some people spend years learning about the loving acts of the Lord, and yet have little affection for him. This is because they do not perceive that knowledge brings. Millions of sincere people with whom we study the Bible on the other hand, feel that their love for God increases unceasingly. Why? Because, as we did, they follow the example of Asaph. How?

Meditate grateful

Determined to cultivate the love of Jehovah in his heart, Asaph wrote: "with my heart will show concern [...]. I will remember Jah practices; Well, certainly will remember his wonderful Act of long ago. Certainly meditating in all your activities, and your business will be intensely interested "(Salmo 77: 6, 11, 12)." God's love will blossom in the hearts of all those who meditate in the ways of the Lord, as the psalmist did.

In addition, remember good experiences we have had in the service of the Lord strengthens our relationship with him. The Apostle Paul said that we are "partners" of God, and a very special friendship can spring from this close link (1 Corinthians 3: 9). When we show to the Lord our love, he appreciates it, and your heart rejoices (Proverbs 27:11). Then, when we ask for your support and it helps us to face some difficulties, we perceive that he is close to us, thereby increasing our love.

The friendship between two people is close to express the feelings of the other. In the same way, when we say Lord you why love, our love intensifies, which leads us to reflect on these words of Jesus: "must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength" (frame s 12:30). Well, what we should do to keep love unto the Lord with all our heart, with all our soul, with all your mind and with all our strength?

Love to the Lord with all our heart

The Bible speaks of the symbolic heart, which represents the inner person, i.e., our desires, attitudes and feelings. Then love unto the Lord with all your heart means that rather than anything we want to please him (Psalm 86:11). We show that we love him making happy our personality. And we strive to imitate it 'hating what is evil and adhering to what is good' (Romans 12: 9).

The love of God shapes our entire way of thinking. For example, we have exciting and absorbing work, but it is there where our heart is? Lol Since we love to the Lord with all our heart, we are first of all his ministers. We also want to please our parents, our spouse and our employer, but we demonstrate love unconditional we feel by the Lord, trying above all to please him. In summary, it is the first place in our hearts (Matthew 6:24, 10:37).

Love to the Lord with all our soul

In the Holy Scriptures, the word soul is used to refer both to the person complete as to life itself. Then love Jehovah with all his soul means using life to praise him and show that we love him.

It is not necessary to say that we have other interests in life, such as professional training, manage a business or form a family. But at the same time, demonstrate our love by Lord sincere doing things in their own way and establishing priorities, allowing us to search "first the Kingdom and God's righteousness" (Matthew 6:33). Worship Jehovah with all your soul also means to serve you with enthusiasm. We show that we love him preaching the message of the Kingdom with zeal, edifying comments in meetings or helping our fellow Christians. We have to do "with all the will of God soul" in every aspect of life (Ephesians 6: 6).

Jesus showed his love without reservation by the Lord to disown himself. It was the will of God before your personal needs. He invited us to follow its model, saying: "If any man will come after me, repudiation himself, takes his torture stake and follow me continually" (Matthew 16:24, 25). In this context, repudiate means to devote himself to God. Means that we love so much that we want to be our owner, as well as when an Israelite from Biblical times, moved by the love of his master, became a permanent slave of this (Deuteronomy 15: 16, 17). Our dedication to the Lord is a tangible proof that we love him.

Love to the Lord with all our mind

Love to the Lord with all the mind means that we do our best to understand personality, the purposes and requirements of the Lord (John 17: 3, acts 17:11). We express our love to improve our art to teach and use all our mental faculties to help others to love it also. "Strengthens your mind for the activity", called the Apostle Peter (1 Peter 1:13). We also try to take an interest in others, especially our brothers, because we know their circumstances and see when they need praise or consolation.

Show that we love to the Lord with all our mind to submit to him mentally. For example, we try to have his view of things, we have it when we make decisions and are confident that your guide is the best (Proverbs 3: 5, 6, Isaiah 55: 9, Philippians 2: 3-7). ) Now, how can we use our energies to show him that we love him?

Love to the Lord with all the strength

There are many young people in the Christian congregation who devote their energies to praise to the Lord (Proverbs 20: 29, Ecclesiastes 12: 1). One way of doing it with all his strength is to participate in full time service. Many mothers take their children to go to school to be forerunners. Faithful elders who, in addition to caring for the well-being of his family, make grazing visits also show that they love unto the Lord with all his might (2 Corinthians 12:15). Lord gives power to those who hope in him, so that they can show you his love to praise him with all his strength (Isaiah 40:29, Hebrews 6:11, 12).

Love grows if grown properly. Therefore, we should spend time meditating on what Lord has done for us and the reasons why it deserves our devotion. As imperfect descendants of Adam, we will never be worthy of "the things which God has prepared for those who love him", but we can show that we love unto the Lord with our whole being. We will continue to do so (1 Corinthians 2: 9

Our work shows that we love God
