Isaiah 42:5King James Version
5 Thus saith GOD the Lord, HE that created the heavens, and stretched them out; HE that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; HE that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
All life is given by GOD and only GOD can take our lives. As such it is our responsibility on earth to cherish the life we have been given. But not only our lives, the lives of all people are to be cherished.
That is why Jesus said that the greatest commandment is to love the LORD our GOD with all our hearts and all our minds and all our strength. GOD is the one who gifted us our lives. Without HIM we would not be here.
But Jesus went on to say that we need to love one another just as we are to love ourselves.
Matthew 22:36-40New King James Version
36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”
37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
One day we are all going to be called to give an account of lives to GOD when we die and go to our FATHER.
Today, are we living our lives as if it is a gift from GOD?
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for the life you have given me to live. Help me to live the best way I can on earth in order to bring honour and glory to YOU. I pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay graciously GOD blessed today!
