Radically Real

Getting Real!

Love the Lord with all your heart, soul and mind and love your neighbor as yourself. This may be the single greatest key to being Radically Real. Love God and love others. But it goes deeper. Love God more than anything else. Make Him the number one priority in your life. And then while you're at it, at the same time, love the people He has put into your life (the easy ones and the tough ones) as much as you love yourself. Their wellbeing is as important as yours because you love them as much as you love yourself.

When you see someone who is lost, you help them find their way home because that is what you would want them to do for you. When they fail to get it, you persevere because you know how important this is and you wouldn't want someone to give up on you. When they put you down, you stick it out because you know they haven't found what you've found and you remember what that was like. Make no mistake about it, this is tough stuff, almost everything that is good and worthwhile is. How much do you love God, can your neighbor see it, and then at the same time, an they see that you love them almost that much. That's the challenge. Time to get real!
