Moment of Meditation: Greatest Commandment (Matthew 22:34-40)
''But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?" And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets" (Matthew 22:34-40).''
To love is the greatest commandment. Everything in the Christian faith hangs on love. Love for God and love for neighbor. We show love for our neighbor only if we have love for God. We have love for God if we believe He sent Jesus to die for us. In His love we love our neighbor. Amen.
