There are days that it is hard to live out this commandment. It is hard because we are suffering from things we do not deserve. It is hard because we question the Lord if the things we are experiencing are punishments of the sins we have made.

Personally, there are days my faith and love for the Lord falter. There are days I forgot how much He have manifested His love for me and kept His promises to me. If you ask me when are these things took place, it was when I start questioning His ways, it was when things don't go my way.

Maybe there were days I falter. Maybe there were days I questioned God's plan for me. And maybe there were days I closed my heart for His words. Yet, greater are those days I surrender my life to Him. Greater are those days I will entrust my life to Him. And greater are those days I open my heart for Him and His words.

Maybe some of you are also experiencing a difficult time right now. Some of you are also questioning God's love and plan for your life. And maybe some of you are doubting His ways. Let me tell you this, our God is trustworthy, His love for you is unconditional and His ways are better than our ways. Let us respond to Him with our Highest calling to love Him with all our hearts, with all our souls, with all our strength and with all our mind. 

Let us surrender to His love and be consumed by His words as we continue to seek Him and journey with Him.
