Loving deeply with all your strength

| 2 Comments

As you read from your Bible each day, keep in mind that these words - heart, soul, mind and strength - are not clear cut categories. There seems to be some overlap with the meanings, yet, when listed together, they communicate the need to love the Lord with absolutely all that we are. 

As we look at loving Him with all our strength today, we will consider strength as the ability, gifts, and energy that God gives us. Worthy is our God to receive love demonstrated though all the effort of our being, all the work of our hands!

 

Take a few moments to read Mark 12:30, Deuteronomy 6:4-9, 1 Peter 4:7-11, and 1 Timothy 1:12.

How can we love Him more deeply with our strength? 

We show that we love Him when we do what He tells us to do. We must never stop praying, never stop asking, never stop seeking from God what His plans are for us. We must walk step by step with Him each day, acknowledging how quickly we can lose focus of what He has called us to do. Girls' Ministry can be overwhelming at times. We may be tempted to quit or at least to take a break for a while. However, if we love Him, we will obey Him. We will love and care for others. We will do whatever it is that He has called us to do. And all our strength, even in the details of our lives, will be exerted to bring glory to God.

 

As you think about your time, your energy, your efforts, and your attention today, ask God how you can love Him most with all your strength. Not just with your girls' ministry, but with every part of your life.

Would you be willing to consider a clean slate...removing things that might not be your assignments...committing to something where you have previously held back? 

Write out your prayer, asking God to help you love Him deeply with your strength. Thank Him for giving you strength. Acknowledge that you know that you can do anything He calls you to do, because you believe that He will enable you to do it. Thank Him for drawing you into a deeper love relationship with Him.
