Commitment

Psalm 37:5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.

Jesus declared He is the Way. Following Him takes commitment. Trust is vital.

Patience is required while we wait on His actions. Patience is part of commitment because we cannot replace His will with our desires.

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.

Zephaniah 2:1-3 English Standard Version

1 Gather together, yes, gather, O shameless nation,
2 before the decree takes effect —before the day passes away like chaff— before there comes upon you the burning anger of the Lord, before there comes upon you the day of the anger of the Lord.
3 Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land, who do his just commands; seek righteousness; seek humility; perhaps you may be hidden on the day of the anger of the Lord.

His commands are just.

John 14:15 If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

Love is a commitment.

John 6:66 After this many of his disciples turned back and no longer walked with him.

Who turns their back on love?
