GOD IS LOVE God and love are synonymous. Love is not an attribute of God, it is God; whatever God is, love is. In Creation. The love of God gives us a new method of seeing nature. His voice is on the rolling air, we see Him in the rising sun, and in the setting He is fair. In the singing of the birds, in the love of human hearts, the voice of God is present. If only we had ears to hear the stars singing, to catch the glorious anthem of praise by the heavenly hosts! In His Wisdom. God did not create humans as puppets to please a despotic desire of His own. He created us out of His overflowing love and goodness, and He made us able to receive all the blessedness which He had ordained for us. He “thought” us in the rapture of His own great heart, and lo, we are! Created in the image of God were we, innocent of evil, of great God-like capacities. In His Power. The whole world moves to God’s great, inscrutable will. Animate and inAnimate creation, the celestial bodies moving in their orbits, the globe with all its diverse issues and accompaniments, are all subservient to this end. In His Holiness. God walked with man and talked with him. He told him His mind, and showed him the precise path in which he must walk in order to enjoy the happiness God had ordained for him. He rejoiced in the fullness of His nature over man as His , the offspring of His love. He left nothing unrevealed to man; He loved him. Oh, the joy and rapture of God the Father over man His ! In His Justice. God showed to man that compliance with His dictates would always mean eternal bliss and unspeakable joy, life and knowledge forever—but that failure to comply would mean the loss of life with God and eternal death. In the world’s bright morning, the stars sang together and all creation leaped in joy. Then the wild desolation of disobedience, pride, and selfish sinfulness entered, opening a great gulf between God’s and Himself. But, as always, love found a way—God came to us and for us. Now, with chastened hearts and quivering lips and glistening eyes, yet with love deep and strong in our hearts, we say again with deep adoration, God is love.

The love of God is something I've never doubted.... can't understand why though. But we often try to see God through human emotions and reasonings, when He sees us through His love. I'll understand someday. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

The hard question is whose side is God on when Christians are at war with each other & if controlling the beautiful sunrise & sunsets---Why the storms to kill people. If someone knows what God was thinking when he created man that is wondrous -----someone who did not exist knew what his creator was thinking before he existed. Pray On!

Marbella's blog 'God is Love' is very much in alignment with my views about/of God. Beautiful display of sunset colours.
