Jesus said the greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind. But how do you learn to love God with your whole being?
Here’s a thirty day plan to help you love God with all your heart.
Not only do the authors of the New Testament proclaim that Jesus is the exact image of the Father, but Jesus said, “If you have seen me, you have seen the Father.”
Reflecting on one story each day, Meier guides you to use your imagination, activating the five human senses to help you feel like you are participating inside the biblical story with Jesus. He then shows you how to transfer the love you feel for Jesus to God the Father, joining those two loves into One.
Especially suited for non-contemplatives, these devotions illuminate the character of the Creator God in such a way that Christian living grows from a foundation of love rather than being reward- or fear-based.
What’s unique about these devotions is that they encourage you to use your physical senses as you imagine yourself entering and participating inside the stories of with Jesus. If you can imagine something vividly, it’s the closest thing to actually being there.
The revolutionary component in the book is how it helps you transfer real feelings of love developed for Jesus into heartfelt, endearing love for the Father so you feel true awe of God’s goodness and you are inspired to act from that love.
