"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." —Matthew 22:37
Obeying the greatest commandment is my highest desire and the focus of my prayers. I long to love the Lord my God with all my heart, soul, and mind. But what does such love look like?
The one who loves God wholeheartedly obeys His commandments, gives thanks in every circumstance, remains steadfast in God’s Word, and serves Him with joyful devotion.
This love aligns with God’s heart: it loves what God loves, hates what God hates.
It is a love that constantly meditates on His Word, delights in talking with Him, and cherishes the fellowship of those who love Him. It is a love that accepts God’s children as family.
True understanding of God’s love compels a response of wholehearted love. How could anyone truly comprehend the depth of His love and not be moved to love Him with everything they are?
