And whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. - 1 John 3:22
When does your life please God?

The apostle John was called the beloved disciple. He loved Jesus and others. When John wrote his letter to the churches he had shepherded, he made sure they understood how to please God with their choices.
John told them, “Keep his commandments and do what pleases him.” God gave us his laws and his teaching so that we would be able to live a life that pleased him. When we live in obedience to his word, we will want those things God most wants to give to us. We will pray in and for his will rather than in and for our own. And we will receive his blessings for our lives.
Pleasing God is wisdom. How will your life please God tomorrow and in the days to come?
