The one thing we all need as well as pursue the moment we are born is love.
Somehow, perhaps by design we were created with an inherent need for acceptance as well as validation for our existence.
However desperately we seek to enter this place of acceptance and validation whether by wealth, careers, or through relationships we all eventually come to the same conclusion; that in this world where we now exist there is no power or source belonging to it that will offer us the meaning and purpose for our existence in which we so desperately seek to experience and to know.
There is only one place where we are able to come to know the meaning of our existence and the love we seek for and that is through Jesus, the place of our creation.
As we come to know God’s love we will experience the only true love and purpose for life.
God longs to express His love through our lives-for He alone is Love. Love has a personality and is always looking for the opportunity to express Himself.
Just as we are not able see the reality of air in and of itself - we can however see its reality as it touches an object. In the same way God looks for a people who will be His objects to be that expression of the reality of who He is.
Love experienced is freedom realized. Once we come to know intimately the Love of the Father we are set free to worship Him with our whole lives. If we try to worship Him however without first experiencing Him it will only be out of obligation and as a result will be empty with no lasting change.
Love carries the power for us to see and embrace our purpose and destiny, which is what we are all looking for.
