The Most Important Thing
The Most Important Thing
When Jesus was asked by the religious leaders about the most important commandment, He quoted Deuteronomy 6:5. This verse contains one of the key commands in all of Scripture...
"Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength."
Deuteronomy 6:5 NIV
We were created to know and to worship God, as well as to make Him known.
Life is full and schedules are busy, but the most important thing is that we love God with everything we've got. If we're successful but don't love God, we’ve missed the most important thing. If we're healthy but don't look to Him, we've still missed it.
God instructed the Israelites in Deuteronomy to constantly keep this command in their hearts and minds. They made physical reminders to help them remember to love God in everything they did. They taught this command to their children as the foundation of all other commands in Scripture.
Take some time to consider your life as well. Is loving God your primary motivation? Spend some time thinking about how good and merciful God has been in your life. Maybe create a physical reminder that you'll see every day—to help focus your thoughts and heart on loving God.
Remember that God loves you more than you could ever imagine. The best motivation to love God is to constantly remember how much He loved us first.
