Matthew Twenty Two

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
-----Matthew 22:37-40

These verses offer a significant paradigm shift for the church. As people search for the meaning of life they don't have to search far if they read Matthew 22. God created us to have love for Him and love those He sends us to.
As humans have a knack for making everything over complicated. Some even say this outlook to life is oversimplifying the process. Regardless, Jesus speaks plainly into our hearts this morning.

If we love God with all of us. The response to experiencing His love, will open our eyes and hearts to others.

"Jesus, thank You this morning that You have given us such a significant mission. Help me follow You and not the rules of man."

Heart and Soul,
