Truly Surrender and Love God - Mark 12

S - Mark 12:30 And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.
O - Jesus is answering the Pharisees' question regarding which commandment is the most important. This passage is the first commandment that he answered with followed by loving your neighbor as yourself.
A - In my life I need to seriously and on-purpose love the Lord with all of my heart, soul, mind and strength. It is one thing to say that I love Him but to truly love Him with every fiber of my body is completely different. I am an open vessel for Him to move me in the way that He desires. I need to convey this same thought to my children so that they too may live under God's protection and blessings. I surrender my life to you Heavenly Father!
P - God, You are amazing and wonderful, full of power and glory! I stand before you today and surrender my life to you with a desire to do your will daily in my life. I ask for your constant and distinct voice to guide me in every step of my day and my life. Help me to focus on you continually and to teach this to my children, not only with my words, but also with my actions daily. I ask you for blessings on my family and I today and that you speak ever so clearly to both Christa and I about the adoption and the distinct path and child that you want us to raise.
