Matt 22:37-39 "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38This is the great and first commandment. 39 And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself"
We focus a lot on the first commandment and we should. If you follow Christ this is what it is all about. All of our lives should flow in and out and through and around this commandment. And the second is like it. I follow Christ and I'm learning how to love God with all my heart, soul and mind. I will be learning this my whole life. And the second is like it. I want to grow in this area. I want to desire to God with all that I am. And the second is like it. I read books and blogs about growing closer to God. I have amazing conversations with my husband and my friends about how to love God deeper and how He is continuing to refine me. And the second is like it.
What am I, what are we doing about the second. The love your neighbour as yourself. Dwell on that for a bit. What would that mean if I truly loved the people I meet that interact with as myself?
