So with a new month, comes a new set of SPF (spiritual, physical, and financial) ideas/goals. To go along with keeping myself accountable to myself with my diet and workout plan, I thought I would also write out this idea I have had for some time about this SPF.
As I was putting Cameron down for bed tonight, I was laying there thinking about how much I loved him and Eva and then thinking about how much I loved Cara and how fortunate I am to have such a great family and great friends as well. I was thinking about how much I love the kids even after they can be complete monsters at times. Then I was thinking about God's love for us and even when we are "monsters" God still loves us. If you think about it, Love is really what makes the world go around. The ultimate act of love was of course God sending his son Jesus to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. As much as God loves us, we too should love God, others, and ourselves. When the religious leaders tried to trick Jesus in Mark chapter 12 verse 29-31 by asking Jesus what the most important commandment was, he answered "The most important one, answered Jesus, 'is this, Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself'". So that's it, we should love God, love others, and don't forget to love yourself!
Prayer tonight is for Marc Lundy and family...
