“Love the Lord your God.” Josh22.5 ESV
Love is often confused with just our feelings for someone. It is certainly that, indeed who would want another’s love if it were not heart felt. But love is “more than a feeling,” if you know what I mean. The encouragements, which follow this admonition, are practical expressions of our love for the Lord, particularly as actions. Four are mentioned: Walk in all his ways; keep his commandments; cling to him and serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. This pretty much covers it all. There is only one God and He is of course to be first in our affections. But in the end, it will be our actions that reveal the true measure of our love for Him. 6/16/2008 ts
Just me trying to be honest with God.
