Love God with All Your Heart

Scripture: Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”

Observation: Love God with all my heart the deepest love, there should be no one, not even my wife that I love more than my Father. My soul, my being should be based on my love for God and my mind He should always be in my thoughts and my decisions. If I live my life this way it will honor God and I will be able to fulfill my purpose, but why don’t I live this way all the time?

Application: When I wake up and pray, I need to think of who I’m talking to, the God of all creation. I need to show God the love and respect he deserves from me, before saying a word. Then live the rest of the day with God on my heart, soul and mind, doing everything in a way that will please him.

Prayer: Dear God I do love you, forgive me for not showing it in my actions and telling you more throughout the day. Take this life in your hands and use me in a way that will please you.
