1 John 3:18-22

18Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

19By this we shall know that we are of the truth and reassure our heart before him;

20for whenever our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything.

21Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God;

22and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.
