Day 11
The Passage:
Matthew 22:33-40
33 When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.
34 But when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered themselves together. 35 One of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And He said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the great and foremost commandment. 39 The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”
Corresponding readings:
- Deuteronomy 6:4-9
- Leviticus 19:18
- Luke 10:30-37
- Philippians 2:4
Reflection:
- What do you learn about: God? Jesus? People?
- How does this touch your life?
- What is your take-away? How do you hope it will influence you and your life with others?
Going Deeper:
- “How can I pray for you today?” Ask someone today who you possibly do not know well and who you would like to care for in some way, this question. And remember to pray for them. You can come back to them in the future and ask them about their concern.
