” YOU MUST LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, ALL YOUR SOUL, AND ALL YOUR MIND.” MATTHEW 5:8
It is so important that we continue to keep our Lord God in heaven close to us each and every moment. His love for us was displayed in the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ on the cross. If God had not sent his son to the cross, then each of us would have had to die for our own sins. However, Jesus came and suffered through everything we go through each and every day. He died a horrible death and went to hell and back just for each of us. We must continue, each day, to build our faith and live our faith. We should surround ourselves with things and thoughts of the Lord and not of this world. PRAISE THE LORD!
