Mt 22:34-40
But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sad′ducees, they came together. And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, to test him. “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.”

Jesus highlights the two most important commandments and in doing so, intertwines them. I think implicit in this is also a love of self. But they’re all interrelated: how I love God affects how I love myself and others. Loving God in others is the best way to fulfill both of these commandments at once, so that’s what I’m going to try to do for everyone I meet this week
