"Teacher, which is the great commandment
in the law?" Jesus said to him, "'You shall
love the Lord your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like it: 'You shall love
your neighbor as yourself.' On these two
commandments hang all the Law and the
Prophets."
( Matthew 22:36-40 *NKJV )
Dear Addison,
In the top verse Jesus quoted from Deuteronomy 6:5 and
Leviticus 19:18. By fulfilling these two commands, a
person may keep all of the others. For these two summarize
the Ten Commandments, as well as, the Old Testament moral
laws as well!
The Apostle John summed it up this way; Beloved, if God
so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
( 1 John 4:11 )
This is why it is so important in our walk of Faith, that we
become living examples of Christ's Love! For when we mirror
that Great Love, it actually plants the seeds of Faith in others,
thus helping them to achieve Eternal Life with our Heavenly
Father. There is no greater gift that you can give to someone!
Also by giving this gift it pleases God and all of the Company
of Heaven, for it is written; There is joy in the presence
of the angels of God over one sinner who
repents." ( Luke 15:10 )
So Addison, have a Wonderful Day, and please take the time
to do a little planting each day! Amen.
All My Love & Service,
Pastor Allen
