Copyright © 2009, World Library Publications. All rights reserved. The supernatural joy of loving obedience
In John 15:9-1, Jesus spells out the three basic elements of faith: obedience, love, and joy. Love is the center; it holds obedience and joy together. When we disobey, it's because we don't understand why it's unloving; we don't realize our sin interferes with our ability to love and to be loved. On the other hand, when we obey because we love, we experience great joy.
Obeying because we love is a mature faith. As children, we first obeyed because we feared punishment. To experience joy, we have to let go of childish reasons for obeying God's commands. Adult obedience is this: We love God so much that we want to follow Jesus in every way and in every circumstance, because we know that he loves us and that his commands are always based on love (even when we don't understand how so), and we know that we can trust him. We'd be foolish to disobey.
And we love others so much that we don't want to sin against them.
Love is like the air around us: We can close ourselves up and never breathe the air, and thus we die. Like- wise, we can close our hearts and never receive the love that is permeating from God in every moment, and thus our souls slowly die. But when we obey God, imitating the holiness of Christ by following his com- mandments, we unite ourselves to him and therefore we're immersed in his love and therefore we experience unworldly joy.
If we really understand what occurs in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, joy is our primary feeling as we emerge from the confessional. It's a joy that comes from rediscovering that despite our disobedience, God still loves us, and that by reconciling with him we have opened ourselves to receive and experience his love more fully again.
Consider any command that you have trouble obeying, whether from the Bible or Church teachings. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you how this command is based on love. In what ways are you missing or misunder- standing the love that's inherently there?
In Acts 15:7-21, the first Christians had to learn to stretch their love for God to include the Gentiles. We all need to allow God to stretch us beyond our current limits of love. To grow in holiness, we have to grow beyond old, familiar ways of dealing with the laws that we dislike and the people who are unlikable. That's the secret to finding supernatural joy.
Here's a great prayer for starting each day: "Dear God, I want to obey You today; help me to stay close to You. Thank You for being so good to me; I love You and I want to love You more. Lord Jesus, be my joy. When I am tempted to sin, help me to love others more fully. I want to remain in Your love; help me to obey the call to love." Bearing more fruit from the vine
Is your life making a difference? Are people brought closer to God as a result of spending time with you? (And I don't mean, do they have to run to God for help because you're causing them problems!) If you're con- nected to Jesus, like a branch of the vine, then the answer is yes, you are making a difference, you are evangelizing the world around you.
Are people attracted to you? Do they want to be near you because of the love you share? When others go through difficulties, do they come to you for prayers, wisdom, compassionate understanding, or some other attrib- ute of Christ? If yes, then you are bearing his fruit on the vine.
We're all in need of some pruning so that our vines become more deeply grafted into Jesus and we produce better fruits. Sometimes we scrape others with dead branches that are leafless and hard and broken. Being pruned of these ugly, diseased and poisonous twigs is painful, but it's good that the Father cares enough to trim them away. Pruning enables growth, and thus we become stronger and more beautiful.
In Acts 15:1-6, we have an example of well-intentioned Christians who scraped others with old branches. As Phari- sees, they legalistically clung to old Jewish ways by insisting that Gentile converts subscribe to all Mosaic laws. But in the verses that follow, we see that God was able to prune them because they had grafted themselves into Jesus. They listened to Paul and Barnabas and allowed the Holy Spirit to change their minds.
Jesus wants to bring peace to others through you. To bear his good fruits, let God prune away everything that does not come from Jesus: Come to Me, My friend I call you to a deeper surrender of yourself I call you to come to Me I call you to come to My freedom Unloose your heart Surrender again to Me today Come to Me, My friend I will give you all you need Believe and trust in Me I know you will not understand Only know My way is the perfect way My plan is a perfect plan for your life Turn yourself to Me again today I wish to deepen My life in you I wish to give you My love My friend, I want to transform you to make you a new creation, ever new, ever changing I want to bring you into a deeper freedom I want you to believe in My power to transform you, to heal you Do not limit what I can do There is still so much more I want to do with you and through you I call you to a deeper faith that I may be still more powerful in you.
