Love all of you but my first Love is God...
I love watching a herd of horses grazing in an open pasture, or running free across the wide, grasslands of Alberta. I used to love hiking in the foothills when the wildflowers are blooming, the purple lupine and the Indian paintbrush when it’s turning magenta. I love thunder clouds, massive ones. My family loves to sit outside on summer nights and watch the lightning, hear the thunder as a storm rolls in across Alberta. I love water too the ocean, streams, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, rain.
I Love all of you but my first Love is God.
Everything you love is what makes a life worth living. Take a moment, set down the book, and make a list of all the things you love. Don’t edit yourself, don’t worry about prioritizing or anything of that sort. Simply think of all the things you love. Whether it’s the people in your life or the things that bring you joy or the places that are dear to you or God, you could not love them if you did not have a heart. Loving requires a heart alive and awake and free. A life filled with loving is a life most like the one that God lives, which is life as it was meant to be (Eph. 5:1–2).
I Love all of you but my first Love is God.
Of all the things that are required of us in this life, which is the most important? What is the real point of our existence? Jesus was confronted with the question point-blank one day, and he boiled it all down to two things: loving God and loving others. Do this, he said, and you will find the purpose of your life. Everything else will fall into place. Somewhere down inside we know it’s true, we know love is the point. We know if we could truly love, be loved, and never lose love, we would finally be happy.
I Love all of you but my first Love is God..
