You Shall Love

 The LORD Your God

 With All Your Heart

 

 

Now this is the commandment – the statutes and the ordinances – that the LORD your God charged me to teach you to observe in the land that you are about to cross into and occupy, so that you and your children and your children’s children may fear the LORD your God all the days of your life, and keep all his decrees and his commandments that I am commanding you, so that your days may be long. Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe them diligently, so that it may go well with you, and so that you may multiply greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has promised you.

 

Hear, O Israel: The LORD is our God, the LORD alone. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart.

 

Deuteronomy 6:1-6

 

Have you ever been to a funeral when someone noted that the deceased was close to their god? Remember, there is only one God, and He is Our God. We build a relationship with God by truly believing and accepting that His Son Jesus died for our sins.

 

In love, the heavenly Father provided the way to Himself through His perfect Son Jesus who died to pay the penalty for our sin.

 

There is only one true God. He is holy and has provided the only way of eternal life through Jesus. Is He the God you are trusting in? Think about it – seriously?

 

To get into heaven, it’s who you know that counts.
