Heart

   Team Members
Blaize, Rachael, Mary E., and Amanda

Introduction
Over the next few weeks, you will be studying what it means to love God with all of your heart. Working with your partners, you will combine your research and put together a page that defines the command, shows examples from Scripture of those who followed the command, lists other passages of Scripture that relate to your topic, and gives personal applications for the command.

What do we do?
This is the page where you will put your research together. If you have a question for your partner, use the discussion tab at the top of the page and you can leave a message for your partners. It will also be helpful if each person types their additions in a different color. You can change the font size and color using the editing toolbar when editing a page.

Each week a different assignment will be due. You will find them on this page along with the due dates.

I am very excited about this opportunity for you to collaborate with someone in another country, but also to really study the greatest commandment of Scripture.

If you have questions for me, you can leave them on the "Questions for Mr. V" page.

Week 2: Defining Your Command

 * The assignment:** Come up with a one-sentence definition of what it means to love God with all of your heart. The 6th grade students will come up with 3 possible definitions, and the Davoll's will also write 1-3 definitions. Then, collaborate with your partners to refine the definition by taking the best parts of the possible definitions and putting it together in to one final definition.


 * Due date:** April 3.


 * Definitions from Blaize, Rachael, and Mary**
 * 1) <span style="color: rgb(0,255,255);">Loving God with all your heart means that no matter what happens in your life you know that God is going to be there.
 * 2) <span style="color: rgb(0,255,255);">He should be above all things in your heart. Nothing should be more important than him.
 * 3) <span style="color: rgb(0,255,255);">It means that we would understand and not get mad at him even when we don't get our way.

<span style="color: rgb(192,98,186);">1. Loving God with all your heart is living for God, and doing everything for Him. 2. Loving God with all your heart is serving him even when it's hard. 3. Loving God with all your heart is trusting in Him to take care of you. <span style="color: rgb(49,211,49);">Loving God with all your heart means that He should be above everything in our lives. That we trust in our hearts that He is there always to take care of you. That most impportantly He is our first priority and we love Him. **
