S - One of the scribes approached. When he heard them debating and saw that Jesus answered them well, he asked HIm, "Which command is the most important of all?" "This is the most important," Jesus answered: Listen, Israel! Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.
O - Jesus quoted Deut. 6:4-5...a passage the Jews knew very well. The command is to love God with all your heart (affections), soul (spirit), mind ( intellect) and strength (will).
A - Every part of me should be expressing the love of God. If I'm focusing on loving God in every part of my life, the outcome will be better. Obedience rather than self-centered disobedience.
P - Father help me to be obedient to your command - to love you above all things and to love you with all of me.
