God puts a premium on attentive obedience that springs from love for Him. Jesus said explicitly that those who love Him should obey Him.
Thus, those who love Jesus continue to sharpen their acquaintance with Him so that they might know His will better and more clearly. This enables them to discover more ways to express their love for Him.
What got me to thinking along this line this morning?
“He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination” (Proverbs 28:9).
May I keep my ear turned toward and tuned into God and His law.
But what does that mean?!
