And here I sit typing as I listen to Christian Techno music. This morning I met with two other women for our first reading of Scripture together. We're going to get together each morning at 8 or 8:30 am to read Scripture together for 30 minutes, then pray together. It was great. At times I tend to think that Devotional Times are more complicated than they need to be. Just planning on getting together to read- takes no preparation but it's SUCH a blessing!
So this morning we were reading in Matthew. And for some crazy reason, a verse popped out at me that's never popped quite to this degree.
Matthew 21: 36-40
"'Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?'"
And He said to them, "'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 foremost commandment."
"The second is like it, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
"On these two commandments depend the whole Law and Prophets."
LOVE GOD. If I follow this command, all others will fall into place. If I love Him with all my heart, my life will show it. Fruit will come of it. People will notice it. People will be attracted to my attraction for Christ. It's simple. I make Him my love and my life. I use my life to show Him how committed and in love with Him I am. Beautiful.
