Beginning

"Love the Lord your God with all of your heart, and with all of your soul, and with all of your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself" Luke 10:27.

Wow - what a huge ask. An absolutely massive undertaking - overwhelming. How do I go about loving God so much especially when He seems so far away sometimes - and love all people...those who cause serious pain to others, those who just seem so unloveable. IMPOSSIBLE!!

And that's the whole point - this would have to be my "most important" verse and aspect to living a life "with God" because without God - this verse IS impossible to achieve. This verse tells us what we must cultivate in our hearts and souls -not so much as to what we must do - as this would be like "trying to be nice" and failing miserably.

To love God / neighbors is the ultimate to what God wants for us - nothing is more important, as we are designed for this function "created in God's image" - our souls desire this allignment. As I cultivate my heart and soul towards this goal, I hope to discover something quite amazing....

It is this quest which I am on.
