"“If you love me, keep my commands.” (John 14:15, NIV)


Jesus makes it clear that love for Him is not just an emotional feeling but is demonstrated through obedience. He calls us to follow His teachings and live accord- ing to His will, not out of obligation, but as a response to the love He has shown us. Obedience is the fruit of a genuine love for Christ—it’s how we show that we value His guidance and trust His plan for our lives.


During Lent, we are called to reflect on how we express our love for Christ. It’s easy to say we love Him, but true love is shown in the choices we make. When we obey His commands, we are aligning our hearts with His. Whether it’s forgiving some- one, serving others, or living in integrity, our obedience reflects our devotion.


Challenge: How can you demonstrate your love for Christ through obedience to- day? Is there an area in your life where God is calling you to follow His commands more closely?


Prayer: Lord, help me to show my love for You through my obedience. Give me the strength to follow Your commands and live in a way that honors You. Amen."
