Your Only Purpose Is To Love Me
“Meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.” — Ecclesiastes 1:14
Today I was going on my daily walk and complaining to God about how disappointed I was that my life didn’t seem to have any real purpose. Do you ever feel that way? You know, just thinking that I would feel happier if I was doing more .. or maybe comparing myself to others that I think have that magic balance in their lives that tell them that they are on the right track??
So then God interrupts my thoughts and says to me: “What if I were to tell you that your only purpose was to love me”?
Wow. That just blew all the clouds away! It’s about love. We are here to LOVE. To love and be loved. That is our purpose. That is why he created us. To love us and to return that love. He wanted children, not robots or servants. He wanted children to LOVE and, to love back, without conditions. Don’t let anyone tell you that you have to earn this love. It’s there all the time.
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!” — 1 John 3:1
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8
Think About This As You Spend Tie With God Today:
“We love because he first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19Have you been striving to find your purpose in what you do rather than who you love? Take a moment today to simply rest in God’s love — not as a performer, but as his child. Ask him what it feels like to be loved by him unconditionally.
