Love is the Dream

Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” And Jesus replied to him, “‘You shall love the Lord you’re God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself [that is, unselfishly seek the best or higher good for others].’ The whole Law and the [writings of the] Prophets depend on these two commandments.”

Matthew 22:36-40

From all the teachings, these two depend;
sum as they are of the Prophets and the Law.
Come and make His Word your home,
plumb with God's dream, to live and love in awe.

Few take time to heed His Words:
“You should love your God with all your heart”.
Do you "love your neighbor as yourself",
seeking the best for others from the start?
