You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and with all your soul and with all your strength [your entire being].” Deuteronomy 6:5 Amplified Bible)
Good morning, my friend!” I just want to give you a love challenge today, but please note that the challenge extends beyond today and continues into your future existence. Let your personal response to the challenge reflect that for you, it is just a way of life.
I can express the challenge in two words, “Love Loud!” Let today’s opening and closing verses guide you to ways that you can successfully meet this challenge. One clarification. “Love Loud” is not limited to your verbal expressions, and it is not conditioned by the auditory receptivity of others. “Love Loud” extends to your living in a way that pleases God and engages your entire being. Sometimes it will be seen in your reactions and other times, in your action.
Loving loud will not only please God, but it will be a testimony to others that you have passed from death to life. In other words, it will be evidence that you have indeed been saved and that you are being obedient to Jesus’ commandment. Have a great day! Meet the challenge regardless of your crisis, condition, circumstances, confrontations, or complications. Turn the volume up and “Love Loud!” Be blessed!
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:34-35 NIV)
Committed to the climb,
Mark L. King
