Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress
them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when
you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates. - Deu 6:4-7
Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that's in you, love him with all you've got - Deu 6:5 (MSG)
The Scripture talks about passing down the commandment to the next generation, to love God. It even specifically says to teach it at home, along the road, lying down or getting up. It seems to imply this teaching should not be confined to Sunday School or Family Altar, but this teaching is to be conveyed all the time.
God, please tear down this wall in my life. I suppose there are a lot more that needs to be torn down too. At some point, I really can't find the strength to fight and press on.
