How will it looks like if all of us simply follow this greatest commandment?

Matthew 22:37-39
And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Hello, dear @theenaocay,
Not following this commandment is exactly why the world is not a perfect place. People constantly neglect God, even if they are Christians (let’s not talk about other religions), and when they do they are not loving our Father. Even if God is omnipotent that still hurts him as any father, he wants us to love him.
Is the same between neighbors, people almost never think about the others.
If we managed to follow this simple phrase, the world would be a better place, maybe a mini paradise.
Kind regards, Luis Guerrero

Hi ! @theenaocay
Love, maybe, if only each and every single person in this world operates in Love, there will be no more suffering and pain.
It’s always different for everybody, it’s sad but true that people do things outside their conscience for different reason and cause.
The world will look like a little children in pure innocence if only all us will follow the greatest commandement.

Perhaps if each of everyone followed God’s greatest command, it can be called as a ‘heaven on earth’ since everyone gives glory to God and loved each other. No more misunderstandings, fights, and wars will happen and everybody will be in harmony as we all praise and worship God together.

I am not poetic or a prolific writer enough to write a reply that would give justice to the proper answer to this question. However, let me borrow some verses from the song “How Sweet, How Heavenly”

How sweet, how heav’nly is the sight,
When those that love the Lord
In one another’s peace delight,
And thus fulfill His Word.
When each can feel his brother’s sigh
And with him bear a part;
When sorrow flows from eye to eye,
And joy from heart to heart.
When, free from envy, scorn, and pride,
Our wishes all above,
Each can his brother’s failings hide,
And show a brother’s love.
