Laws of Love

"Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself" (Matthew 22:36-39).

Of all the mandates of the Law,
The greatest one that we can find
Is: You shall love the Lord your God
With all your heart and soul mind.

The second one is: Love your neighbor
The same as you would love yourself.
May these be found in our behavior,
Not hidden on a dusty shelf.
