OBEDIENT LOVE
The 20th Day of Love
Memory Verse—John 14:15. If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
The Prayer—Help us, O God, to show our love by our obedience.
The Affirmation—Today I will obey!
The Scripture Lesson—John 14:21-25, 27
The Meditation
To love Christ means to love the law which He
obeyed. He said, “I come not to destroy the law,
but to fulfill the law.”
Remember:
You cannot have the holy help you need in
pursuit of a purpose, if you practice the petty
perversions of disobedience.
—To love right means to do right!
—To do right means to love right!
And:
The rigid rules of discipline must never destroy
the delicate desires of divine devotion! The
divine purpose of discipline is not to make more
discipline but to develop more devotion in love.
We break God’s heart when we disobey, but we
do not break the law—the law breaks us.
