It's the first and greatest command - the most important thing. But even if we want to love God that way, most of us don't. Are we doomed? Absolutely not.

THE note which runs through Doctor Slicer's "Meditations" is that of expectancy of good from God, God's universe, and God's creature Man. He believes with all his heart that God's very essence is love, that the universe abounds in beauty and loveliness which Man is capable of appreciating and responding to, and that in human nature itself there are large elements of gentleness, dignity, and sympathetic loyalty which since history began have been winning successive victories over inherited animal propensities, barbaric vices, and social and industrial wrong-doings.
