Jesus answered, "The most important command is this: 'People
of Israel, listen! The Lord our God is the only Lord. You
must love the Lord your God. You must love him with all your
heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.'"

-- Mark 12:29-30 (ERV)


KEY THOUGHT:
The essence of our response of faith is pretty straightforward. Love
God. It can be said in a number of different ways. Love God above all
things. Love God more than all things. Love God with all you are. Love
God for as long as you have life. Essentially, however, the bottom line
of the command is still the same: love God.

Prayer
Heavenly Father we praise Your holy name. We love you and help us to look to You for strength and guidance and mercy and forgiveness. Help us to look to You and not dwell on past mistakes. For they are washed in the blood of Your Son who died for us. Thank You Jesus. We praise Your name.
