You say you love me...

I must say, I'm writing this post with a little bit of frustration. I'm tired of hearing people say they love God... Oh you do? So why are you hurting Him? Why aren't you doing what pleases God? Why is it such a hassle for you to go to church on Sundays? You are saying you love Him but your actions are showing otherwise. Umm so doesn't that make you a liar? Okay I'm sorry for starting up like that, let me rephrase. Please if your actions are not acceptable before God - sinful, you don't love Him. A man can't serve two masters at the same time; it's either you're for God or you're not.

"If you love me, keep my commandments."-John 14:15. "In fact, this is love for God; to keep His commands. And His commands are not burdensome."-1 John 5:3. I've realized that when you truly love God, you'd care about Him and His feelings. It's like being in love with a person, where you just want to spend time with them and do anything to make them happy. That's same thing with God. It's easy to obey God when you love Him because you just want to make Him happy!!. Obedience becomes second nature. So if you find yourself easily disobeying God, it's because you don't love Him, because you wouldn't dare hurt someone you claim you love!
