“5You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.” – Deuteronomy 6:5 (ESV)
And there you have it, the greatest commandment. We are to love the LORD will all our heart and more. But don’t take my word for it.
“’36Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?’ 37And 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. 38This is the great and first commandment.’” – Matthew 22:36-37 (ESV)
Jesus tells us the same so it is not just me saying. It is something to love, something else to love with all your heart, soul, and mind. It is loving with every fiber of you being. It is emotional love and physical love and actions of love.
It is the common thing in the social world today to throw up a heart sign, meaning “I love you” or “you have my heart” when expressing ourselves positively for some thing. I do it, influencers do it, public figures do it, most everyone does it. But notice when it does get used, it is in the world as we know it today and we express it, in a lot of cases, to those we don’t even really “know”. What about throwing it up with the LORD.
Our greatest commandment is to love the LORD with all our heart and yet, are we our there expressing that full love to Him at all times. I don’t believe we are. I know that I am not always queued in to my heartfelt love for the LORD. I may pray to Him in the morning and when there is a need to be expresses for others, but I should be better at being all in, heart, soul, and mind, for the LORD. I have to throw up a heart sign for Him more than I do for other figures in this world. I have to live the greatest commandment in my life as I have been instructed to do and more importantly, as I should do for the savior of my life.
What is your view of love for the LORD? Are you giving others love with all of your heart before the LORD? What if you were to first give the LORD all of your love from the heart, soul, and mind as instructed by Jesus?

Easy to say, difficult to do. There are so many things competing for our love
That is why I am grateful The Holy Spirit makes me so sensative to Jehovahs blessings every day I cannot help but be grateful for them and by extension be deeply in love with Jehovah and Jesus for them. As well there are times through out the day I feel Their presence and am deeply in love with Them Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
