Matthew 22:34-40
Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharasees got together. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?"
Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
I personalized this:
Bonnie, I want you to love Me with all your emotion, with all your psyche and with all your intelligence. Love Me with your passion, with your understanding and with your knowledge of Me. I want you, Bonnie, to love Me with everything I made you to be.
And I want you to express your love for Me in every relationship you have--to love other people with the same thoughtful consideration you would give Me, or even yourself. If you do this, Bonnie, then you will be obeying and carrying out all My commandments, all My will for you.
