How much do you love God?


What amount do you love God? 
There are specific things, signs maybe, in the Bible are genuine pointers of our affection for God. 
Recollect as an adolescent when you went through hours consistently on the telephone with your beau/sweetheart? Huge numbers of us sneaked out of the house or possibly were not 100 percent legit with our folks to pick up the chance to invest energy with our secondary school darling. 
Is your heart that route toward God? Hymn 84:2, "My spirit longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my tissue crieth out for the living God." When you love somebody, you want to invest energy with them. 
My better half detests tomatoes. At the point when we experience a drive-through if the sandwich she needs has tomato, I will tell the individual working the drive-through, "no tomato" while putting in the request for her sandwich. I do this consequently; she doesn't need to let me know. I love her, and I know her alright that I recognize what satisfies her. 
God abhors sin. The sandwich of our lives He arranges is generally attractive to Him without wrongdoing blended into the fixings. The more we love Him, the more we need Him to like His sandwich. Song 97:10a, "Ye that affection the LORD, disdain evil." Do you scorn sin? What kind of affection sandwich would you say you are serving God? 
Following 38 years of marriage, my better half despite everything fulfills me. There are ladies decades more youthful with more energetic excellence, yet my significant other is as yet the most lovely lady I have ever observed. My joy level ascents when she goes into the room; fears and uncertainty are simpler to uncover when she is there. She isn't great, however, she is ideal for me. She would say the equivalent regarding me. None of these things that we flexibly for each other is beyond the realm of imagination without adoration. 
Those that adoration God is happy with Him. He is the foundation of our bliss, gives our requirements, quiets our feelings of dread, addresses our inquiries regarding life and the universe, and gives us the confidence to endure the day. He drained and kicked the bucket for us, rose again the third day, and will be returning sometime in the future. He spares our spirit. He fulfills each need – profound, physical, and mental to achieve His will on earth and in our lives. Jeremiah 31:14, "And I will satisfy the spirit of the ministers with bloatedness, and my kin will be happy with wow, saith the LORD." 
Do you love God enough that He fulfills you? 
Finally, love for God will make us favor Him before common things. Philippians 3:8, "Yea without a doubt, and I tally all things however misfortune for the excellency of the information on Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have endured the loss of all things, and do tally them yet excrement, that I may win Christ." 
Numerous individuals will rearrange their needs to meet the occasion. Numerous a lady has been beaten down over a man who held her hand, gave her blossoms, made her the focal point of his reality (or so it appeared). At that point for whatever reasons, he no longer converses with her or invests energy with her, and the relationship is before long cut off. She understands the adoration the man professed to have for her was transitory, best case scenario in the event that it at any point existed by any stretch of the imagination. 
Does God drift here and there your need list? Is your affection for Him momentary, best case scenario? 
Inspect your affection for God. Do you take pleasure in supplication and perusing the Bible? Does He fulfill your heart? Do you wish to satisfy him, and in this manner have scorn of transgression in your heart? Do you lean toward Him over others?

What is love?
It can be hard to grasp the love of God. Growing up I always knew God “loves” me…but I also loved candy, video games, my parents, and many other things. I knew God’s love meant more than everything else … but how much more?  

God's love is all about action
If you ask me, there are far too many definitions for this one word. Actually, I find it quite sad that this word, the one that is supposed to capture the purest, most powerful feeling for a person, has been polluted with so many other meanings. I believe that this is a huge part of the reason why it is so hard for us to understand what God means when he says that four-letter word.
To God, the word “love” has a much deeper meaning than it does for us. One of the greatest ways I can describe God’s love for us is found in John 3:16:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
God gave His one and only Son in exchange for us. Romans 5:8 says this:
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
