John 14:21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.
Jesus states that your love for Him will be demonstrated by the way you keep His commandments. Many say they love the Lord, but their love is only a superficial one, because they are not really obeying His will for their lives. Notice the next thing mentioned in the above verse.
You are loved by the Father because you keep His commandments. Jesus will manifest Himself to you, as you spend more time with Him and get to know Him better. Is the real desire of your life to follow the Lord at a distance, and still make it to Heaven? Or is your desire to be as close to Him as possible, so that you will have a very intimate relationship with Him?
You are the one to make the choice.
