So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’ Luke 10:27 And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13 The greatest of these is love. Jesus dying for us was the greatest act of love in history. We are forever free from the stain of sin. Hallelujah! He deserves ALL of our love. Our affection, devotion, and attention needs to be centered on Jesus. It is impossible to love unless we know the Father. The creator of our heart, fashioned to run on His presence. Our ability to love is impossible without Him. We are His beloved. Make sure to love who He created you to be. Do not put others first and yourself last. You are first in His eyes. You are appreciated and recognized always by Him. Love others out of the abundance of being loved by the Father. His perfect love is the catalyst to love more. A C T I O N Write in a journal things that you love about God, yourself, and others. Reach out to someone today and share what you love about them.
