In Mark 12:28-31 Jesus states the two most important commmandments are: 1. "Love the Lord, your God, with your whole heart, your whole being, with your whole mind, and with all your strength. 2. Love your neighbor as yourself." Living these out today is challenging. We don't want to give our all to God as we want control of our lives. Loving "our neighbor" as ourselves includes the whole world. There is no exception. No problem loving those near and dear to us...but to love folks that have wronged us is hard! BUT these are commandments, not suggestions. Think on these things!!!
