Law/Awe of Love

There is nothing glamorous or sensational when it comes to humble, faithful obedience.Look at the cross!!No wild applause praises the Living Sacrifice.Often it is not beautiful to behold!Yet, only careful, diligent obedience to His commands makes manifest our declarations of love for God Today as in the days of Moses, the condition of God's blessing remains the same...James 1:25But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. How can His Word be in our mouths and hearts? By familiarizing ourselves with it/Him.How do we do that? Only one way.By spending time in his Word/with God.then what happens?More love for Him.An awe-struck love yielding a willing, humble obedience!for we serve best/most what/who we love best/most How often I/we fail!!but oh, pray failure will not drive us to despairbut rather to repentant prayer, to confess our sinsto He who is faithful and just to forgive them and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.1 John 1:9 ...and then, re-impacted with awe for God's grace, on we go,not in lawless living but in the law of liberty/love! Re-impact us with aweImpress upon our heartsThe wonder of the law of loveThat serving You imparts Renew our minds, oh LordSo, we may test and proveThe righteousness that will confessThe perfect law of Love The law that binds love's woundsThe law of liberty The law that stands on the commandsOf old eternally Delight us with your WordAnd thus, complete our joyWith the increase of hope and peaceThat nothing can destroy With heart and soul and mindLet love’s agenda beDiligence in obedienceWith glad humility Re-impact us with aweFor love’s redeeming vowAnd the reward we press towardWhen at Thy feet we bow …when at Thy feet we bowBy utter awe undoneThe mysteries of Your grace and loveUnveiled around Thy throne © Janet Martin For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who will be declared righteous. For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death. The chaos, confusion, and curse of disobedience(lack of reverence and love for God) speaks for itself💔🙏😢
