Loving God

by Eddy John Sng

Mark 12:30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength.

This is the greatest commandment that God gave to us, and the most important. But what does it mean to love God with all our hearts, all our souls, all our minds and all our strength?

Heart

1 Peter 1:22 Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart.

Soul

1 Peter 2:11 Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul.

Mind
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Strength

1 Peter 4:11b If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ.
