Cabin Fever: Love

So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. —Matthew 7:12

Call to worship:

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

I waited patiently for the Lord;
he inclined to me and heard my cry.
He drew me up from the pit of destruction,
out of the miry bog,and set my feet upon a rock,
making my steps secure.
He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God.Many will see and fear,
and put their trust in the Lord. —Psalm 40:1-3

But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered 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.” —Matthew 22:34-40
