1 John 5:3 “For the [true] love of God is this: that we do His commands [keep His ordinances and are mindful of His precepts and teaching]. And these orders of His are not irksome (burdensome, oppressive, or grievous).” AMPLIFIED


We tend to make life so complicated at times. We know what to do, but we don’t do it. We receive promptings from the Holy Spirit for our own good, but we choose to ignore them; then we wonder why our lives, why circumstances turn out like they do.
We forgo heavenly knowledge for earthly, frail, fallible knowledge, which will fail us. But if we would yield to the commandments of God, His Voice, which is His Spirit; everything will turn out well for us, every time! God’s commands are not burdensome.

If we say we are His true believers, then we will obey His wisdom; and it will show us
how to accomplish every task. His way should be the only way that we seek. Let’s
do it. Let’s spend every day following after the word of God and His Spirit and see how our lives will change. I believe we will be in a place where the evidence of God’s love for us wins out. Our lives will look more and more like we are His children, for we will be living the manifested evidence of it!
Be blessed!
