June 29 - The Only Commandments That Matter!


Bible Verse: "Matthew 22:37-40 New King James Version (NKJV) "Jesus said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.' "

Prayer: "Dear Jesus, Thank You for reminding us that being a Christian doesn't have to be a super complicated thing.  We are to love You with everything we have and everything we are and we are to love those around us as much as we care about ourselves.  That means we need to care about ourselves before we can care about others. Lord, help us to realize that we are valuable because we are Your children. Then, once we have established a healthy amount of self-esteem, Lord, lead us to love those around is in the same way that You have loved us -- unconditionally. Thank you Lord, for making it so clear to us what you expect from us.  You are truly an awesome God! AMEN."
