We must not stop at merely having our devotions. Our study of the Scriptures and our prayers must lead us onward to love. We must learn to love. The entire purpose for and the reason we have our devotions is to learn to love. First, we are to love Christ and then secondly we are to love one another. Loving others can only come out of our love for Christ. So our love for Christ is where we must start.
Everything we do, no matter how big or how small must be done for the love of Christ. There is no other worthy reason to do all that we do. Anything not done for the glory of Christ is done for our own glory. Do everything for the glory of God. Do everything out of your love for God.
Once we can learn that the sum of our actions is not for ourselves or others but for God, we are on the straight path to learn how to truly love Christ and others.
