"You shall love the Lord, your God, with ALL your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind." -- Matthew 22:37
"... To love God with ALL heart, soul, and mind implies a COMMITMENT to spend all your life for God.
It is an ideal that most of us can only do part of the time. We are distracted and tempted by many things and often fail. Perhaps even the most saintly among us cannot say that they can declare 100% compliance to this directive.
I am reminded of the ARCHER who wanted to hit a lofty goal but could not. But at least by aiming high, his arrow would land at a height of glory.
... Our declaration of love for and faith in God becomes credible and visible only when we do CONCRETE ACTIONS of good towards our brothers and sisters...."
