Take note
of what distracts you
from Jesus
We say
“Love the Lord your God
with all your heart
and all your soul
and all your strength
and all your mind.”
and then we start the day
without talking to Him
we ignore His prodding
to love people practically
and we end the day
soaking in more distractions
with a token prayer at bedtime,
if that
Lord, I want to love You
with everything I have!
as a brand new lover
who can think of little else
Jesus, You saved me
with Your love!
with Your love…
I want You to know
that I recognize that and I’m grateful
and I see this
as a reciprocal relationship
I want to love You
MORE
each day
and I want people to see
that You
come
first
in me
I want You to know
without a doubt
that I love You

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and, Love your neighbor as yourself.
– Luke 10:27 (NIV)
One of the religion scholars came up. Hearing the lively exchanges of question and answer and seeing how sharp Jesus was in His answers, he put in his question: “Which is most important of all the commandments?”
Jesus said, “The first in importance is, ‘Listen, Israel: The Lord your God is one; so love the Lord God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence and energy.’ And here is the second: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ There is no other commandment that ranks with these.”
– Mark 28:27-31 (MSG)
So I am not the one living now—it is Christ living in me. I still live in my body, but I live by faith in the Son of God. He is the one who loved me and gave Himself to save me.
– Galatians 2:20 (ERV)
For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With His love, He will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.
– Zephaniah 3:17 (NLT)
