 I am in love with Jesus Christ.  think whatever you want about me saying that.
"what does loving Jesus Christ look like?"
It's not as much what it looks like as what it feels like.  How can you explain to someone what it is to love another?  It's more than actions.  It's more than "looking like" I love Him.  It's more than being a "good steward" with anything.  It is the condition of my heart.  How do I konw that I love Him?  I know that I love Him because I do.  More importantly, He knows it.
"Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned."

I do not think that good works are the ultimate test to true love.  I think they are merely an evidence.  The Lord is the one who truly knows that I love Him, and I am satisfied with that.

This reminds me of a conversation I had with myself shortly after arriving at tmc. I was basically led to believe that my "godliness" would be measured by my involvement in certain activities... boy was I not ok with that. There's so much pressure for outward conformation as a proof of spirituality. Actions can be just as misleading as words. I am so thankful that I am accountable to God, who knows my heart, and not to men... who don't. Stand fast, friend.
