True love is our love for God (7/12/2024)

Shalom all.

Interesting how things change in our lives. We tell our mates, I love you with all my heart, in sickness and health, I will never leave you, and in a few years, we find another love. We divorce our commitment to our first love and engage with another, even raising another child.

Are we weak? Do we turn our eyes to the forbidden tree, like Chaya? Do we break God's covenant?

The only true love is our love for God and when we love our God with all our heart, might and soul, then everything in life falls into place because God is in control of our life and His Love will overflow to our spouse, children, and everyone around us.

Shabbat Shalom.
