[John 14:15-17: “If you love Me, keep My commandments.]

If you love your Dad, you will always want to please Him by doing what He says. Similarly it’s our love for God that causes us to obey His Word. JESUS in our opening verse reveals if we truly love Him, we will be more than willing to obey Him. So stop struggling to obey God’s word, just purpose to love Him from your heart and obedience will come naturally. That is why those who relate to God based on what they want from Him and not from the basis of love never live according to His Word. So purpose to love God, let it be the foundation of your relationship with Him and you will find yourself always wanting to please Him and this will empower you to walk in His Word.
