He who loves Me will be loved by my Father

Sounds like those closest to the Lord actually do “works” and those works are the kind he loves.

Yes maam, faith expressing itself by love.

The obedience of faith.


But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: Romans 16:26 KJV

You know JLB, I heard a sermon when I was in my teens that encouraged us to give to God, if we love Him, that which He cannot buy for Him, our obedience. If you love Him, you will make yourself choose to obey what you know He wants you to do whether you feel like it or not in the moment. It is the gift we can give Him and He values that gift. I never forgot that.

Good stuff, ma’am. Good stuff. :salute
