05 Dec Ep 9 | Wholehearted Part 1
Summary: In Matthew 22:37-40 Jesus essentially tells us that if we keep the Great Commandment (to love God and love others) then every other command and every other thing that God has told us to obey in his word, will fall in line under it. It’s like two hooks and everything hangs on those two hooks: 1) Loving God and 2) Loving Others. In this episode we’ll focus on loving God first, remembering to love God wholeheartedly.

Show Notes:
Today’s Challenge: Think through that equation again – all of those little scenarios I gave you. Jesus + _____ = my satisfaction? Success? Significance? Security? Take some time to really think and pray this through, and then ask the Lord to show you areas of your life where you are adding something to that “blank.” Confess it, repent, and then remember this: The God who made you and loves you knows what you would put in that blank… and he knows that blank will lead you in the other direction away from Him. But His goodness and mercy won’t let you stay headed in that direction – his relentless love is pursuing you to the end. So turn around, empty that “blank”, and let him catch you as you fall into His arms of love.

Hey There! C’mon in!
Hi! I’m Punky Tolson and I am Lover of Jesus! Crazy about His Word! Passionate about helping women fall in love with Jesus and live out the truth of God’s Word in real life. Gosh, I wish we could be sitting in my living room with our legs tucked underneath us, our bibles in our laps, Kleenex on the end table, and a really good cup of coffee in hand. That’s how I’ve done life-on-life with so many women over the past 20 years listening to them share their hearts and the realities of their life; loving them, encouraging them, showing them how to know God, to love Jesus and how to live His Word in their everyday life. So, c’mon in! It would be my honor to spend time with you… and show you how Jesus makes the profound difference in life.
