Why is this? Well according to Jesus in :
Mark 12:29-31
New Living Translation (NLT)
29 Jesus replied, “The most important commandment is this: ‘Listen, O Israel! The Lord our God is the one and only Lord.30 And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.’[a] 31 The second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] No other commandment is greater than these.”
***So according to Jesus, there is only one God, 2. We have got to love God with everything within us! 3. We need to love ourselves, love the life that we've got and embrace the person that we are in order to do #4. Which is to love others. Respect other peoples lives and their worth on this earth. They our on this earth for a reason, just as you!
***This is important information for us to know especially in the times we live; as it says in:
***Its crazy how we take for granted the honest meaning of LOVE and hide it under glass like a prized possession but never really treasuring it! Whenever I feel the need to calm my thoughts, about a situation or a person; I read these verses:

The Dangers of the Last Days
3 You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. 2 For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. 3 They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. 4 They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God.
***Its crazy how we take for granted the honest meaning of LOVE and hide it under glass like a prized possession but never really treasuring it! Whenever I feel the need to calm my thoughts, about a situation or a person; I read these verses:
1 Corinthians 13:12-13
The Message (MSG)
12 We don’t yet see things clearly. We’re squinting in a fog, peering through a mist. But it won’t be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We’ll see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us!
13 But for right now, until that completeness, we have three things to do to lead us toward that consummation: Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love.
