Todays scripture reading is Matt. 22:35-40
The greatest commandment is to Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the 1st & greatest, the second is to love your neighbor as yourself.
Love God & do whatever you want.--St Augustine
If you love GOd, you will walk in close communion with him. If you walk in close communion with him, you'll become more and more like him. Since God loves people, you'll love people too. If you love people, you'll be a loving person who does the right thing from teh heart rather than from a rule book. Love God. Love people. Dont worry about the rest.
(sounds easy enough, not so much so huh)
The author always has a guided prayer & the part that stuck out to me said: Heal those insecure places in my heart that cause me to be self-protective, self seeking and self consummed. Fill me to over flowing so that loving others is as natural to me as breathing.
