Love Conquers All

Matthew 22:36-39 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 neighbor as yourself.’ When asked, Jesus said the greatest commandment is to the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. He also said the second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself? In simplest terms love conquers all! When you love there is no room for; hate, envy, jealousy, anger, covetousness,   bitterness, fear, lies, cheating, malice, murder, contentions, strife, etc. All these are the root of immorality. In John chapter 14: 15 Jesus also stated “if you love me keep my commandments.” Life is full of challenges and we sometimes find it difficult to love and trust God, much more to love others.

Creating New Wineskins

Dear Friends,            Have you ever wondered why your experiences feel as though you are been pressed hard on every side? As though every situation is squeezing the very life out of you? Today we can learn a very important lesson from the process of renewing old wineskins. The Bible tells us that when we   receive Christ old things are passed away and all things are become new,     2 Corinthians 5:17. Now how are things to become new? Becoming new is a process. It is a process we must endure in order for the glory of God to be seen through us. Scripture References:    Matthew 9:16-17 ; Luke 5:36-38 In Matthew 9:16-17 Jesus said : No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls away from the garment, and the tear is made worse. 17  Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
