When asked what is the greatest commandment, Jesus said, “‘You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.’ This is the greatest and first commandment. The second, like it, is this: ‘You must love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments the whole Law hangs, and the Prophets.”—Matt. 22:34-40.
Love of God motivates true Christians to live our lives in a way that pleases Him and to do God's will. The apostle Paul reminded his fellow anointed Christians of God’s will that “all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth.” For this they were to pray that they be granted “a calm and quiet life” so that they might proclaim the Kingdom good news to all who had a hearing ear.—1 Timothy 2:1-4.
So, Love of Neighbor motivates us to follow in the footsteps of our leader, Jesus Christ in preaching the word to all those who are “rightly disposed for everlasting life.” (Acts 13:48).

"Mayyeva mana Adhatsva, mayi buddhim niveshaya" "manmanA bhava madbhakto, madyaji mAm namaskuru" and "nimitta matram bhava savyasAchin". The God expects suggestions and mind of devotee to be surrendered in Him, i.e. do no longer permit suggestions wander right here and there different than His suggestions, take each and every determination conserving in view His opinion/tricks on the subject material(our judgements must be so acceptable that as though they are determination of the God). at the same time as saluting each and every person, the different deity, think of that one is saluting Him, one is worshipping Him.

God wants us to love him and love our neighbor. But we're only human, and God knows that, so he just expects us to do our best. When we fail, he expects us to be sorry for it, to turn back, and to try again.

Faith = Love, Obedience, and Repentence.
God loved us first. He wants us to love Him back. That's why He created us. It's that simple.
