Irreducible Minimums

Believers that find soundbites helpful ought to brand these three into their hearts and minds:
"Love God!"
"Love people!"
"Make disciples!"

Great! You've already spotted my blatant ripoff of Matthew 22:37-40 and 28:18-20. The "Great" verses. Great Commandment. Great Commission. Jesus summed up our primary issues as the need to become obsessively focused on our Lord, then having that love flow through us to others around us. Thirdly, (remember that the previous passage was the 'greatest' commandment and 'second greatest'), we are commanded to 'make disciples'. Being an order, it is not an option. We don't get to choose if we'll be involved in making disciples or not.

Without getting involved in the details or mechanics, do we even regularly think in these terms? Make them questions for yourself:
"Am I loving God?" (with all of my heart, soul and mind)
"Am I loving people?" (as I love myself)
"Am I making disciples?" (others who love God, love people, and are making disciples)

I have begun repeating these three phrases throughout the day as a mean of embedding them deeper in my heart and mind. I challenge you to do the same.
"Love God!"
"Love people!"
"Make disciples!"

"Lord, help me today to hear you when you address each of these issues in my life (or lack thereof). Bend my thoughts, words and habits to Your kingdom. I eagerly anticipate what You want to do with me. Bless Your name."
