Each of us has its own way of showing our love to God.Some says we have to obey his 10 commandments in order to show that we love Him. If ever we break one of its law does it mean we do not love Him? I am much curious and excited how do you show your love to HIM.Feel free to relate your ideas and share...

Jesus summed up the law of God in on law - love. To me to show God I love him is to love him and to also and thus love my fellow person..

Excellent question. I think the perfect way to express your love for God is to obey Him in everything, as you suggest. However, I find that all too often I fall way short of that very goal. God knows we will fail in this, and so I think that the answer lies in our reaction to our own failure. Rather than allowing our failures to defeat us, we have the option of confessing this fault, as each failure occurs, asking His forgiveness, and allowing Him to teach us concerning this failure that we might not repeat it. If we do this, God will forgive our failure, teach us our error, and help us not to be a repeat offender. By the way, Christians do not obey God because they have to, but because they love Him. When we break one of His laws, God does not write us off as if we don't love Him. God knows our hearts better than we do. God loves us unconditionally, whether or not we return that love. Personally, I think the best way to express your love for God is to truly, unconditionally, love your fellow man.

Thanks for sharing cookie, hope you will continue doing the right way wherein you can please God in your life. Though we as humans are capable of doing sins but at least we try to repent and longed God for His constant forgiveness and love. Loving others as we love God is what He calls me, you and everyone of us.For God is LOVE and he said "LOVE one another as i have loved you" sums up the law.
