What's Important

Well, if you came here, you must want to read this, so I'll get right to the point.

God is what's ultimately important in life. In fact, without God there would be no life for us to say what is important or what is not. God created us to be with Him. Unfortunately, we became naturally evil almost at once because of Satan's influence. As a result, we couldn't be with God anymore--we weren't good enough.

Fortunately, God, the good God that He is, provided a way so that we could be with Him. He sent His son Jesus, the very being He loved most, as a sacrifice for ALL of our wrongs. Without this sacrifice, we could never be with God. But with this sacrifice, we can be with Him forever--Jesus has wiped all of our wrongs away.

God created us to be like Himself. Therefore, we can understand one of God's greatest desires: the desire for companionship. We as humans can fulfill God's desire for companionship, if we want to. All it takes is a simple choice to live our lives for Him instead of for ourselves.

God likens our relationship with Him to a marriage. In a marriage, both husband and wife commit to love each other unconditionally for life. This love is then expressed by actions: communication, interest in the other and the other's wishes, desire to serve the other. So it is with God and us--we love God so much that we can't help but try and live our lives to His standard, and He loves us so much that He'll do everything to help us along the way.
