The Greatest Commandment

"Love the LORD thy God with all thy mind, heart, soul and strength..."
and
"Love thy neighbor as thyself".

Sounds easy, right? We make it harder than it should be, no?
How do you love the LORD thy God with all thy mind?
I'm not asking not knowing.. I am asking... you!!???
How do YOU love the LORD with all YOUR mind?
How do YOU love Him with all your HEART?
How do YOU love Him with all your SOUL?
How do YOU love Him with all your STRENGTH?

I can't answer these questions for you... only you yourself know what is in your heart and who you are... what you give (to God) is between you and Him.
But are you gonna' let things come between you and Him?
What I mean is....when you are in a crowd ... are you gonna' let fear of what other people think stop you from worshipping the KING?
David sais over and over in the Psalms that he shouts unto the LORD ... that he makes known HIS praise among the people.... He (David) danced naked in the streets of Jerusalem praising Our God!
And when his wife got mad.. he told her he planned on becoming even more undignified than that! (To honor God..)
Because it doens't matter what man thinks... it can be easy to get sucked into the trap of thinking that you have to please everybody...to keep peace or to keep people happy....
But if you are making people happy at the expense of drawing deeper into God... then I think you are paying a pretty high price.... and hurtin' for it too.
Why then do we sometimes stop ourselves from being who God calls us to be?
(criticisms...)
We are Called Out----We aren't supposed to be like everyone around us.
OH! AND .... If you're in a place where you DON'T feel the FREEDOM to WORSHIP the LORD the Way you should or desire to... then realize it is in YOUR ability to pull that stronghold down... and bring in God. See, He lives inside us.. and we carry Him where ever we go... You can move into the Presence of God... and you can move others into His Presence. We have to train our selves (Whole Selves-mind, heart, soul, strength aka will of the flesh) to hasten to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit... and not for us for Him.
We can bring down strongholds.

We can Worship the LORD.

Where the SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS, THERE IS LIBERTY.
Worship the LORD- Bless His Holy NAME. Glorfy the LORD thy God. For HE alone is WORTHY!
