How can I strengthen my love for Christ and God?

Jesus said:"Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?" Luke 6:46 and also: "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments." John 14:15.
We demonstrate our love to Jesus through our obedience to His words. Obedience to Jesus carries a high price. If we obey Him we will be rejected, scorned, mocked, persecuted and even killed. The strength and increase of love comes through the endurance. As we endure, even in the face of difficulty, our love for Jesus will increase.
