He is Faithful to Perform

Obedience doesn’t come from a place of performing for God or others - doing things because you think they are right or because you think it’s what a “good Christian” does. Obedience flows from you as a response to a relationship you have cultivated with God. You do what He says because you love Him. You do what He says because He has shown you that you can trust Him. You do what He says because He is the only one that sees your entire life from start to finish and knows precisely what is best for you.
