"If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love." John 15:10. Jesus is the perfect example of obedience to the Father's commandments. He constantly walked in all the will of God. Because he chose to do the will of the Father, he abided in God's love. So it must be with our lives. We will abide in the love of God if we keep his commandments. God has loved us with an amazing, incomprehensible love. We must continue in that love. For the love of God delivers us from the guilt and penalty of sin. God's love for us gives us eternal life, and the hope of heaven. His love will deliver us from the pangs of death. Under his banner of love, we are never alone in this present world. We also have a refuge from life's storms. God provides for us all the blessings that we need in this world. We need his love for us. Therefore, we must walk in obedience to his will always keeping his commandments. The commandments of God are not unreasonable, and the keeping of those commandments guarantees us peace and security in this life. Let us insure his love for us by keeping his commandments daily and constantly.
