Do You Genuinely Adore Him?

Written By Ricardo McGee

St Mark 14:6

Love that does not transcend our own self is not genuine love. If we believe that love is defined by being careful, prudent, rational, shrewd, and never taken to extremes, then we have misunderstood its actual essence. While it may evoke feelings of affection and warmth, this definition does not accurately capture the essence of love.

Have you ever been motivated to act for God out of pure love for Him, without considering its usefulness, duty, or personal gain? Have you ever considered that you can offer God things that hold significance to Him? Are you simply idling away, fantasizing about the magnificence of His salvation, while disregarding all the tasks you could be accomplishing for Him? I'm not talking about extraordinary activities that could be seen as divine and magical, but rather about plain, regular human actions that would demonstrate to God your complete submission to Him. Have you ever produced what Mary of Bethany generated in the heart of the Lord Jesus? "She has performed admirably for me."

At times, it appears that God observes to determine if we are willing to offer Him even modest acts of submission, as a demonstration of our authentic love for Him. Surrendering to God holds greater worth than our individual righteousness. Worrying about our own holiness makes us unduly focused on ourselves, leading to excessive care about our behavior and appearance in order to avoid displeasing God. When we are devoted to God, complete love eliminates fear (1 John 4:18). We should stop questioning our utility and acknowledge that we are not very useful to Him. The concern is not about being useful, but about being valuable to God directly. When we completely surrender to God, He will continuously work through us.
