“And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live” (Luke 10:25-28).
The title of the beautiful song “Loving God, Loving Each Other,” recorded by the Gaither Vocal Band expresses the answer the lawyer gave to Jesus. It is the will of God for us to love Him and love others. If we are willing to do that, we will live a blessed life now and for eternity.
