Love God with all our Heart

No one else can give God all "your love" except for you. A unique part of Jesus' inheritance has been entrusted by the Father to you specifically. It is the love that only you can give. We only get one opportunity to do this in a fallen world where love for Jesus is both costly and rare.

So What?
How do you move God's Heart? Try 3 different ways of turning your actions, emotions, time, energy, and heart toward him. We are God's inheritance! Only we can love God like we can! SO lets start today!

loving obedience

Affection Based obedience is the strongest type of obedience because it flows from experiencing Jesus' affections. It is the most consistent obedience because a lovesick person will endure anything for love. People in love are untouchable. Freedom is found in uniting with Christ.

So what? It says we love God by obeying his commands in John 14, not because we have to but because we love him so much that we wouldn't have it any other way. Love requires the wholehearted pursuit of obedience in both our attitudes (purity, humility) and actions (service). How are you going to display your loving obedience today to God as well as to others (your parents, friends, and Loved ones).

Entering the Company of the Great Explorers

My gender seems to need little encouragement. It comes naturally, like our innate love of maps. In 1260 Marco Polo headed off to find China, and in 1967, when I was seven, I tried to dig a hole straight through from our backyard with my friend Danny Wilson. We gave up at about eight feet, but it made a great fort. Hannibal crosses his famous Alps, and there comes a day in a boy’s life when he first crosses the street and enters the company of the great explorers. Scott and Amundsen race for the South Pole, Peary and Cook vie for the North, and when last summer I gave my boys some loose change and permission to ride their bikes down to the store to buy a soda, you’d have thought I’d given them a charter to go find the equator. Magellan sails due west, around the tip of South America—despite warnings that he and his crew will drop off the end of the earth—and Huck Finn heads off down the Mississippi ignoring similar threats. Powell follows the Colorado into the Grand Canyon, even though—no, because—no one has done it before and everyone is saying it can’t be done.
