Do You Love the Lord

Mark 12:30 (KJV) "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment."

How much do you love the Lord? This is a question that everyone must have an answer for. Can you say that you love the Lord more than anything else in your life, more that your children, more than your husband, your wife, more than your grand-children, more than your mom or your dad, more than your own self?

Wow, this question really opens the eyes of God's people because I believe it will show us that we are not where we should be in our relationship with the Lord. You see, how much people love God will show in their daily lives, how they walk, how they talk, how faithful they are to the Lord and his work.

In John 10:27, the Lord says this, "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." Sheep will follow the Shepherd, but Goats will never follow anyone, in order to get them to a place they need to be, they have to be lead. Once you determine how much you love God, then you may answer a lot of questions about your salvation and where you stand for the Lord.
