DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 2; Isaiah 44:24 to 45:25; 2 Cor. 5:11 to 6:10
This is love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, that, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it. 2 John 6
John does not say that love is an overwhelming emotion–though in contemplation of Christ’s death for us, we can experience this. John states that the expression of love is in walking according to God’s commandments. The wonderful thing about keeping God’s commandments is that in our obedience He reveals Himself to us giving us an even greater desire to follow Him. May we be faithful in all things to the Lord and show our love for Him. —Baylor Crawford
Once earthly joy I craved, sought peace and rest;
Now Thee alone I seek, give Thee what is best.
This all my prayer shall be: more love, O Christ, to Thee. —E. Doane
