Do I love God? Many of us would instinctively say yes, but we must be cautious. As Jesus warned in Matthew 15:8, there is a real danger of honoring God with our lips while our hearts are far from Him. So how can we know if we truly love Him? God’s Word gives us the answer. In 1 John 4:19, we are told, "We love Him because He first loved us." A few verses earlier, in 1 John 4:9, it says, "In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him." This is echoed in John 3:16, which reminds us that "God so loved the world"—that’s you and me—that we might have eternal life through the sacrifice of His Son.
