“But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him:” 1 John 2:5 (NIV)
This season can be distracting, stressful, confusing, and difficult. The message from the world out there does not always give us what is true. God has revealed Himself in His Word which we call the Bible. In it He has revealed how we should live. All this comes from the Lord because He loves us. We are reminded in today's verse that when we follow the standards God has shown us in His Word His love for us is made complete. If we are willing to let God's love work in our hearts it will make obedience a part of our lives. So when we learn of something in the Bible that God wants us to do or a principle He wants us to follow, let's remember that He wants it because He loves us, not because He is a dictator. His promise to us is to make us complete through our faith in Him.
