“Your love is Singular when all your delight is in Jesus Christ, and you find joy and comfort in no other thing.” Blessed Richard Rolle (1300-1349)

It is not that God needs us to love him. He is love. His love of its very nature is Other between the Triune Persons. This love is also other outside of the Trinity. When God commands us to love him, it is for our sake not his. Since love is perfect within the Trinity, so love will be our ultimate perfection and fulfillment. This is a mystery that will not be fully understood and appreciated until love is perfected in us. Our identity is an adopted child of God. Our purpose is to be with God eternally in glory. Our perfection achieving this through grace is love. Learn how to love God and you will be perfected.
