Love

"According to God, we are here to love. Not much else really matters. God measures our lives by how we love." -from Crazy Love, by Francis Chan

"love is the fulfilling of the law." Romans 13:10

"And one of the scribes ... asked him, 'Which commandment is the most important of all?' Jesus answered, "The most important is, '...you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." Mark 12:28-31

"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him." 1 John 4:7, 16b

Your life shouldn't be spent asking continual questions like, "What is God's will for my life?" or "What am I supposed to be doing right now?" You are here on this earth to love. Love God with your whole being and love other people, and you will be fulfilling God's will for you. Love is the answer. It's that simple!
