i was just thinking yesterday evening when i was falling asleep (after just coming from work)...what does Jesus say about us showing Him that we love Him- when we keep His commands!!! (1 John 5:9)
My good friend Alex said to me the last time he was in estonia .,.that God was really smart "writing" that command- love your neighbor as yourself :) because it kinda brings together all the rest. well the first command of all is to love God with all of your heart soul mind and strenght (Jews called it shema and said it out loud every time they got together to study dcripture etc) but the law about loving your neighbor as yourself...it combines the other laws.- if you love your neighbod you dont kill them, you dont steal from them you dont want their wife or their car but u are happy for them that they have these things...you dont say bad things about them if u love em, you want the best for them and you can continue thinking about all those things that you wouldnt do..(that the Bible tells u not to do(- for your own good)).
oh i have a LONG way to go to reach that point but at least i know where i wanna go and where im aiming. ill count on God to change me and let me grow in that subject aswell.
ps. thanks Alex
God is amazing!!! i love Him!
