Pleasing Christ

Being a Christian is not about following a bunch of rules, or trying to be "good", or having a long list of things you "can't" do. It's a relationship with Christ.

When you know Him and love Him-when you know the love He has for YOU-you come to a place where you WANT your life to honor and please Him.You KNOW He wants the best for you and that HIS ways are best, so you surrender your will to His and let Him work in you to change you from the inside out.

The more you read and study God's word, the more you learn about Him, the more you surrender your life to Him, the more your words and behavior will just naturally become that which pleases Him.

"Our action is not to earn God’s love. Our action is because of God’s love for us. We don’t act to earn God’s love. We act to express our love for God. Jesus says in John 14:15, “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” Love comes first. Obedience follows. Do you love God? Don’t obey to earn His love. Obey God because you enjoy His love and want to love Him back."(Unknown)
