How Deep is Your Love?

This takes only a minute and I think everyone should answer these 14 questions for themselves . They are questions to ask in determining how much we love God . Taken from the City of God by Venerable Mary of Agreda. I have always wanted to read the city of God and knowing God and Loving God is something we must all strive for as a Christian. As you can see I need some improvement.

    Excellent post! The answers for me were the same but then again I think we all would answer the same!
    Certainly this post and the questions in it can only help to strengthen our relationship with God!

    Thanks,
