i’ve been getting hit with this same revelation day in and day out: it’s all about love.
it’s so simple but i just can’t seem to get it through to my heart. my head is doing ok with it…but my heart is in a different place. who would imagine that just two verses, two sentences in the Bible would take up so much of my thought life, my energy, and time?
matthew 22:37 is my favorite verse. my life verse, if you will. Jesus says that we are to love God with all that we are..and then a couple verses down Jesus says that we are to love our neighbor as ourselves.
1. Love God
2. Love yourself
3. Love others
my, my this is a lot more complicated than it should be. and yet, it keeps circling through my head…love, love, love. love God, love yourself, love people. i wish i would just get it already!
but as with other things, it’s a process. oh, the process. as hard as im wrestling with God to walk in this, i just want to freely give and freely receive.
i’ll get it eventually
