Day 29

3/6/2015

 
Matthew 22:37-38  (ESV) “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the great and first commandment.  And a second is like it:  You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”   

Meditative thoughts: 
How does Jesus motivate my love for God and also for my neighbor?
What does the Holy Spirit enable me to do that is impossible for me to accomplish on my own?

From: Luther and the Stories of God, Robert Kolb, p. 20.

The Gospel does not only effect the removal of sin. It also bestows upon the believer the power and strength to live as a child of God. By means of that forgiveness, God has bestowed on sinners this new identity as His children. (Luther) "He not only covers and protects us, but He also wants to nourish and feed us as the hen nourishes and feeds her chicks. That is, He wants to give us the Holy Spirit and the strength to begin to love God and keep His commandments. ...keeping God's commandments involves knowing and having Christ."
