When Jesus is asked about the most important command in the Old Testament, the Hebrew Bible, he answers by quoting from the ancient prayer known as the Shema, “love the Lord your God with all of your heart.” But that’s not all. Jesus quickly follows up by saying that another command from the Hebrew Bible is also the most important, “love your neighbor as yourself.” So which is most important? For Jesus, both are vital because the first command cannot be obeyed without heeding the second. They are inseparable. A person’s love for God is expressed by their love for others.
Read:
Mark 12:29-31, Deuteronomy 6:5, Leviticus 19:18
Reflect:
Pay attention to what Jesus says after quoting from the Hebrew Bible. What questions, thoughts, or feelings come up for you as you reflect on his words?
Review the passages from Deuteronomy and Leviticus. What do you observe? How does this impact you today?
Turn your reflections into a prayer to God from your heart.

The Christ Tree contains countless sprigs of fir, representing each of us. No two sprigs are the same and they come together to form a magnificent sight. Each one is unique, yet an essential part of the whole, just as we are described in 1 Corinthians 12. We hope you will join us as we read The One Advent plan and celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior.
