Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Matthew 22: 37-39 (KJV)
What does it mean to love the LORD, your God, with all your heart?
Let’s face it, each second we have here on earth is “borrowed time,” and in essence, “a gift” from the Father of Lights. So knowing that we have many things to do, during our lifespan, whether it be short, or long, we should recognize that God is in control of all things. And that incorporates into endless scenarios. But mostly, we should adhere to His will and purpose for our life, according to His plans.
When I read passages from the Bible and meditate on His word…I feel His love which increases exponentially, the deeper I get into the Bible, and the more I get to know Him. Knowing Him, and loving Him, is inherently the biggest blessing a Christian can have.
But experiencing His love, is an entirely different level, and a whole other dimension of disparaging proportions. His love is prolific, and immeasurable, it’s a shield of protection that garners our energy, our paths, and our ways.
Thanking Him, loving Him, and obeying Him, are critical key components of Christianity. It’s an honor to love Him of course, but to experience, and feel His love… well…it’s beyond words!
