"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul and all your strength."
This is so hard because You are not here! And Your answer is: To love me is to love the people around you.
Today I need to buy Isabel some bug antennae and then I need to go to Walmart and buy first aid supplies for the missions trips to Ethiopia and Kenya.
I need to write the last day of the VBS skit from a place of love and service to the church. I need to give Isabel and Lily my time and attention.
I have to write my posts, figure out dinner, clean the house from top to bottom, launder mom and dad's sheets, help out with Isabel's dress rehearsal...
Jesus quotes Isaiah in Mark 7. He says, "These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men. You have let go of the commands of God and are holding onto the traditions of men."
I pray for humility and grace.
