We Exist to Love

Posted March 20th, 2009 by admin

In Deuteronomy, God gave Israel a command that revealed His heart’s desire for them:  “Hear, O Israel…You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” 

God’s first priority for humanity is that we would love Him.  This command is the “why” behind the “what” of creation.  His ultimate purpose for creation is to provide a family for Himself and an eternal companion for Jesus who would be fully possessed in love.  We cannot be too extreme in our vision to love Jesus.  The very purpose of our existence is to become a Bride, offering voluntary love to the Son of Man.  Truly we exist to love.
