Love God, Love Neighbor Deuteronomy 6:1-3

Here Moses speaks to the Israelites, and somewhere between parting the Red Sea and leading the people to the Promised Land, he says, “This is what it takes to get to where we’re going: Love God with everything you’ve got.”

He says, “This is what leads to life, all the days of your life. Listen!” Follow carefully, and good things will multiply; a better day will come.

Do you ever wonder, Is this as good as it gets? Popularity and grades. Selfies and parties. Being beautiful and funny. Athletic wins and college admission. A high-paying job and a big house. Is this it?

When I visit 90-year-olds from my church, I come looking for more. What really leads to life? What gives promise and meaning and blessings multiplied?

Whether the land you’re entering is high school, college, a new job, or beyond, it’s the love of God that points the way.
