Remember that prior to telling Peter what He wanted Him to do, Jesus first asked, "Lovest thou me (John 21:15-17)?" Love for Christ fuels an obedient mindset.
Love comes first. If we love Him, we will obey Him.
John 14:15 says, "“If you love me, keep my commands." And then, verses 16 and 17 promise the Holy Spirit, our counselor, comforter, and helper. God helps us to obey via the power of the Holy Spirit in our hearts.
Lord we love You, help us love You more, in Jesus' Name we ask this, amen.
