CHow can I show my love for God?

How can I show my love for God ?
Many of us want to please God, but we’re not always sure how to do that.
Jesus gives us a powerful picture of how God will one day judge people. He describes God separating people into two groups: those who served Him and those who did not.
The people who truly served God were those who regularly helped others in need. In contrast, those who did not serve Him often ignored the needy people around them.
Jesus ends this teaching with these challenging words: “ as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did for me.”
All our religious activities and efforts to love God mean very little if our lives don’t reflect that in our love for other people.
Take time to read or watch Jesus’ teachings and allow them to challenge you. Then listen to Phuong’s story, and see how people lived out Jesus’ message by helping her and her family.

Matthew 25: 31-46

Read about how Jesus teaches that our actions on earth of serving people are connected to our actions of serving him

Matthew 25: 31-46

“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me. 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
