Being In Love With God

Being In Love With God

by Bob Colquhoun

Loving God with all our heart, mind, body, and soul means to surrender and submit all of who we are so that He can transform us into who we are for Him. It is continually setting aside our current  life  so that God’s life can reside in our heart  and He can live in and through us. We must not only continually strive to make the right faith choices, giving God the authority to work in us, but we must also give God our lives so that we can live out the faith choices He gives us.

Romans 12:1

Loving God with every bit of our lives means becoming one life with Him. It’s exchanging our own thoughts, emotions, and desires, for His Image, His Love, His Wisdom, and His power. It means letting go and surrendering our mind, body, and spirit to His will and purpose for our lives. That has been His desire from the very beginning.

Genesis 1:26-27 / Galatians 2:20

Realizing the fact that we will make mistakes and we will stumble allows us to truly see and know that Jesus Christ was, is, and always will be, the perfection we should strive for. Through His death He took upon Himself the penalty for our sins. Through His resurrection forgiveness became alive, and through His life we must live as one with Him. This is the Agape ( super natural Love) of God.

Romans 3:23, 5:8, 6:23, 10:9 / Ephesians 4:4-6 / John 3:16
