Love is a powerful influence in our hearts in our effort to be obedient. Love for our Savior inspires us to keep His commandments. Love for a mother, father, or spouse can also inspire our obedience to gospel principles. The way we treat others reflects to what extent we follow our Savior in loving one another (John 13:35). We show our love for Him when we stop to assist others, when we are “perfectly honest and upright in all things,” (Alma 27:27) and when we make and keep covenants.
