"The One Two Punch"

A Blast From The Word
By Sandra Rhynes

“The One Two Punch”

Mark 12:30-31
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment. 31. And the second, like it, is this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” There is no other commandment greater than these.

Wow! These are pretty strong words. Love is the leading affection of the heart, soul, mind and strength. First of all without love, nothing that is good is done, or done right. The greatest of these is Love. The heart, soul, mind and strength are all connected. If you love, really love, with one of these-then all of these areas love. Then, the Golden Rule comes into effect. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. We are of the same “body” “Christ’s Body” He loves us all the same. We are to love our neighbor the same way as He loves us and gave His life for US ALL……… Soooooo
Love God
Love you neighbor as yourself
That’s It---period

Say. I love You Lord. Without Your Love, I can’t love others in the right way. Help me to love Your other children as You love me. Fill me with Your love. Amen
