Title: All You Need Is Love
Theme: Love God - Love Others - Proper 25 (30) Yr. A
Objects: A song book with some love songs.
Scripture: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." Matthew 22:36-39 (NIV)
I don't know for sure, but I think that there have probably been more songs written about love than about anything else in the world. Here is a list of some of my favorites: "Love Makes the World Go Round," "Love and Marriage," and "When I Fall in Love." Oh, I almost forgot one the best love songs ever written. I am sure all of you know this song! It goes like this:
Jesus loves me, this I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to him belong;
They are weak but he is strong.
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.
What a wonderful song about Jesus' for love us. In today's Bible story, Jesus teaches another very important lesson about love.
People were always amazed at the teachings of Jesus. One day a crowd was gathered around Jesus when a man who was an expert in religious law tried to trap him with this question: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment?"
Jesus answered, "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind,' this is the greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." In other words, Jesus was saying that if we could keep these two commandments, we would not have any trouble keeping the others.
You know, that reminds me of another love song, "All You Need Is Love." Let's pray and ask God to help us to love as we ought.
Dear Father, help us to love you with all of our heart and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
