Parents and Kids Daily Devotional "First Things First"نموونە

On the first day of the month, we are reminded again of what matters most. The verse says exactly that. What matters most is to love God and others.

Love. A word that’s easy to say, but honestly, hard to do. As humans, we tend to love when we are loved. We feel that it is easier to give when we have been given. This applies to everything else. But that’s not what God teaches us. He has loved us when we were still sinners, even when it breaks His heart. He freely gives knowing that we can’t repay Him. Everything He does is simply beyond comprehension.

As we meditate upon His Words, let us hold on to this particular verse as the foundation of what we do. Let us learn to love God more each day (CONNECT WITH GOD), and love others so that they can also be Christ-followers, like us (MAKES DISCIPLES).
