MATTHEW 22:37-39
Jesus said to him, ‘ “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
---- mine,
Do you fully understand what it means to love God with your entire being? All you are and have belongs to God. You are created for eternity, created to belong wholly to Him. You do not belong to yourself, or to any creature, nor do you belong to the world or the netherworld. You are bound for heaven. You are purchased, you are ransomed, you are not your own. You have been redeemed by the Son of God who became Man for your sake. I died so you could live a new life of grace, beauty, and truth. You also belong to your neighbor for every human being is a child of God and you are commanded by Your Father who is their Father too, to love every one of His children as much as you love yourself. If you desire to live filled with peace and joy in this life keep these two commandments and My peace and joy that surpasses all human understanding will find a home in you. Remain in My love, ---- my own, and you will remain in God.
