Shalom,

I LOVE this from today's Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan in Mark 12:28-31!

28 Then one of the scribes came up and listened to them disputing with one another, and, noticing that Jesus answered them fitly and admirably, he asked Him, Which commandment is first and most important of all [in its nature]? 29 Jesus answered, The first and principal one of all commands is: Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord; 30 And you shall love the Lord your God out of and with your whole heart and out of and with all your soul (your life) and out of and with all your mind (with your faculty of thought and your moral understanding) and out of and with all your strength. This is the first and principal commandment. 31 The second is like it and is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

Notice that the MOST important commandment that we have from Almighty God is to LOVE HIM first and foremost! HE should be our first love, our top priority, our #1! When He IS, then the second commandment to love others will come naturally and will be far easier to do! Why? Because the more we DO His Word, the more we will BE like HIM! And it is in HIS strength and with HIS ability that we are able to do so! Here is Hillsong Worship with "To Be Like You":

Shalom in Him!
