Lent Day 9
All the aforementioned 10 Commandments are summed up in the two Great Commandments, which simply put are Love God (covers 1-3) and Love Your Neighbor (covers 4-10).
If you really can do those two simple things, you are probably not going to be able to break any of the 10.
The words of a church hymn really make me think about the true meaning of existence. "God is Love, and they who abide in Love, abide in God, and God in them."
That is utterly profound. Without Love there would be absolutely no reason for existence of any kind, therefore Love is the Creator and Love is the only way to salvation.
About Me
- Joe
- Life is not about just me, it is about what I can do to somehow make the world a better place. I have to ask myself daily, what did I do today, make someone smile or frown? If I did the former, I am doing my job. If the latter, I have to revisit why I am here. Maybe the frown was the result of something I said for their own good, but they did not accept it. I cannot help that, because you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make the horse drink. That does not imply that I know everything, but I can only speak from my own experiences. Experience sometimes means I have found lots of ways to make mistakes, but mistakes can be the best teachers. Life is choices, I can choose to let everyone learn from their own mistakes, or share my experiences, and by doing so, hopefully help someone avoid the same mistakes.
