A most important relationship

John 15:9-15
How can we have meaningful relationships without the MOST meaningful relationship. So many people believe they are in love. I know of a couple who seemed to be in a happy and even blessed relationship. However now they aren't even together. Many are claiming to be in love, and feel that the other person loves them. I just want you to seek the Lord when you evaluate whether someone loves you. It starts with... Mark 12:30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment. 31 And the second is like, namely this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these. Notice how, LOVING GOD WITH YOUR WHOLE SELF COMES FIRST. Then loving your neighbor as you would yourself. I would suspect that many with relationship problems are having the same issue that God has with their significant other. However, before you go there I in thought, it is wise to turn the eyes of scrutiny on SELF first.
