Your All in All

all your love

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Mark 12:30

We have all heard the phrase “give it your all,” right? Well, that sentiment is never more clear than in the words of Jesus in Mark 12:30. Jesus does not tell us to just love God. He tells us to love him with our all.

all our heart: We are to love deeply, sincerely, compassionately.

all our soul: We are to love from our spiritual core, from the center of our faith, through the will of the Holy Spirit.

all our mind: We are to love with understanding and a clear conscience without any ill intent.

all our strength: We are to love with the power God has given us and the confidence we have in Jesus.

Think of these components every time you hear the word love in any context, and consider ways in which you can incorporate all of them in your expressions of love to God, especially in worship, prayer, Bible study and devotions. He truly is your all in all.
