Fall In Love With Krishna ...... (5)
(This is the concluding part of our 5-part series on why we should love Krishna)



Krishna engages his omnipotence to help us when we love him

Krishna does use his omnipotence to help us if we express the desire to love him. Let’s understand how Krishna helps us in two ways:

1.   He makes himself constantly available to us
2.   He accommodates us when we falter in our attempts to love him

In the Bhagavad-gita (15.15), Krishna states that he personally resides in the hearts of all of us for guiding us to our ultimate good. There, he waits for us to voluntarily express our love for him or at least our desire to love him. We can express this desire by rendering devotional service. When he sees our sincere desire, he reciprocates by using his omnipotence to remove the roadblocks on our path to purity.

Srimad Bhagavatam (1.2.6) declares that when we learn to love Krishna purely, the result is yayatma suprasidati: our heart and soul become content fully and forever.
