17 the moment becomes more scary every time i wonder

i'm embarrassed by the length but there is no other way. hope it comes as a good read: reprocessing the Gospel.

Let's assume God exists, which He does. Now, what's the point of God creating humans? (I assume humans exists as well, which they do.) I'm clearly biased and wish not to think of all the ridiculous possibilities, but I believe He created humans so that they can love God and love each other. It is part of His Being, His nature perhaps, that He must be worshiped. Loving Him is the ultimate form of worship. One may look at that and call God selfish, but one may also look at that and see that it benefits us as humans to worship God. We are made to worship so when we do so, it aligns with our soul, our purpose. This may also seem as predestination somewhat, but if we really are created by God, who are we to say how God should make us.

If we were to believe that God made us to love Him and to love each other, then we should also agree that God wants to reveal Himself to us. Otherwise, we wouldn't be worshiping Him if we do not know who He is. We also wouldn't know what love truly is. We wouldn't be able to love Him and love others. We often think we know a good bit of love, but God's love is entirely different. He speaks on loving your enemies, forgiving those who has hurt you, and sacrificing your life for the sake of others. These are acts that one cannot fully accomplish without first experiencing God's love.

So now, God wants to reveal Himself to us so we may learn love. How does He reveal Himself to us? I believe this is the perfect transition: http://januarythirtieth.blogspot.com/ This entry is becoming far too long.
