Loving=Serving=Obeying

Serving others is a key!
One of the questions asked in Sacred Sabbath is 'what does it mean to serve the Lord?' Well, for one thing it has nothing to do with the work of a waiter or waitress in a restaurant. God is not waiting for us to bring Him the things He ordered. God doesn't need anything from us. The bible explains this in Acts 17:25

Nor does He need anything that we can supply by working for Him, since it is He Himself who gives life and breath and everything else to everyone.He does not need our service, but He wants us to serve others. That is what He loves. We can find ways to serve the Lord throughout the bible. Loving, serving and obeying cannot be separated. I want to put it this way: out of love for God, we will serve others, and in doing so, we'll obey Him!
