Do You Love God With All You Have?
“Love
God, your God, with your whole heart: love him
with all that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got!” Deuteronomy 6:5 (The
Message)
In February we tend to focus on ways to
express love to our sweethearts, family and friends as the valentine cards,
candy, and gifts start to flow. Almost
44 years ago my husband and I were married on Valentine’s Day. I thought it was so romantic and would help
my husband to always remember our anniversary!
I would be upset if he didn’t express his love on that special day, but
it is also important that we show our love to each other on a daily basis.
This year as I read this passage about
loving God, I began to wonder what our expression of love to our Abba Father
might look like. How do I show Him that I love Him every day? What can we give Him as an expression of our
love? Here are some ideas:
·
Get to know Him as we pray and read His Word
·
Verbal expressions of Thanksgiving and Praise
·
Service to Him as we minister to others in His
name
·
Striving for holiness as He is Holy
·
Share His Love with others
·
Obedience to his direction
·
Worship Him corporately and individually
·
Spend time with Him daily
·
If you haven’t done so yet – give Him your heart
Let’s ask him to show us new ways to express our love to
Him this year and then act on it. Add to
this list and commit to loving Him with all that’s in you. After you make your list post it close to
your quiet place where you meet with Him as a reminder ways to express your
love to Him daily. He is worthy of our love and praise. What better way has He shown us His amazing
love than when He took our place upon the tree? Love Him with your whole heart.
