Mark 12: 13-34

In our society, we have a tendency to make things more complicated than they need to be.  This happens in all areas of our life, including our faith.  That is one of the reasons I love this scripture for today’s devotion.  Jesus is asked which commandment is first or greatest.  His response is very straight forward: Love God and Love Your Neighbor!

We can show our love for God by spending time with him in prayer and reading the Bible.  We can demonstrate love for our neighbors by simply being kind – even to those we disagree with.  My prayer for this Lenten season is that we focus on Jesus’s straight forward direction:

Love God and Love Your Neighbor!
