LIKE

My phone dinged last night several times.  I realized that it was our group of friends letting someone know that they liked their post on Facebook.  One of our friends took a leap of faith quit her job and started a new one.  Her new business venture has been growing by leaps and bounds.  One way that she extends her business is through social media and having our entire inner circle like her posts. 

This liking of posts made my mind go to God.  I asked myself if God had a like button would He like everything that I was doing? 

This should be our goal to do things that would make God want to hit His like button.  So how can we make sure that we do those certain tasks in life?

In Deuteronomy 10:12-13 NIV Moses said to the people,

12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, 13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?

To fear God doesn’t actually mean to be scared.  When we fear the Lord we are showing Him the utmost respect.  We should want to perform tasks in this world that would make Him proud that we are His children and not do things that would make us fear Him.  This means obeying His commandments and avoiding all sin. 

When we think of walking, we think of what we do with our legs, however when we walk with the Lord we are referring to a way of living.  We should strive to live the way the Lord would want us to live and turning our head when Satan tries to coax us in his direction.

God does love no doubt about it.  We should love the Lord with all our heart, soul and strength. Love the Lord and love our neighbor are part of the 10 commandments, that alone should tell us something.  When we love the Lord we want to serve Him in a way that every tasks we do leads Him to hitting the like button.

We have two choices when it comes to serving.  We can serve the Lord or we can serve the world.  We all know what our choice should be.  Serve Him by doing His will.  Serve Him by leading others to Him. 

The bible tells us what God wants us to do for Him to hit the like button.  It gives us the valuable information to follow to get unlimited amount of likes from God.  The more we do in obedience to God the more likes we will receive.
