Every true believer loves the Lord. Peter, speaking of the Lord to believers, could say, “Whom having not seen, ye love” (1 Peter 1:8). In the presence of the proud Pharisee, the Lord said of the woman who kissed His feet, “She loved much” (Luke 7:47). Yet, the Bible recognizes that love to the Lord may be found in very varied measures in different individuals on different occasions. Five times in John’s Gospel the writer refers to himself as “The disciple whom Jesus loved” John 13:23 John 19:26 John 20:2 John 21:7 John 21:20 John enjoyed the Lord’s love for him, which inevitably deepened His love for the Lord. If we would desire to love the Lord with more singleness of heart, let us not turn in upon our own hearts and think of our love to Him, but rather, delight in His love for us.
