Life is about love. I know we've all heard that before, and it's a little trite to say it, but it's true. It really is all about love. The meaning of life and the purpose of being alive is love.
God himself is a sucker for love. Just like we are. Everyone is a sucker for love. Everyone likes to be loved and responds well to being loved. This includes Him. He has made us in his image, and we were born to be loved. So was he. This is why he created us, so that he would have someone to love and someone to be loved by. It's not about a religion. It is about love. It is about having a relationship with Him so that there can be love. So that he can love you and you can love Him. And when you are loved by his perfect, never failing love, you will want to love others the same way. This is the way it is supposed to be.
The entire purpose of christianity, at it's core, boils down to love. He loves you, you in return love him, and all that love transfers outward to other people. This is what all of the teaching and ministry and everything boils down to. Relationships so that we can love.
Everything that God does is out of his love. He cannot do otherwise, because He IS love. So everything that he does is out of his love. And if anything is not done in love, then it is not of God.
God Knowing you and you Knowing God. This is what life is about.
