How do we know if we love God?

Answered in 1 source

We demonstrate our love for God by obeying His commandments and loving one another as He has instructed.

The evidence of our love for God is manifest in our obedience to His commandments and in our ability to love others. As stated in 1 John 4:20, if someone claims to love God but does not love his brother, he is a liar. This illustrates that love for God is intrinsically linked with love for others. Furthermore, as we understand God's character, including that He is love (1 John 4:8), we begin to reflect that love in our interactions. Genuine love for God transforms our hearts and compels us to uphold and cherish His commands.
