A- All about Love

If you know anything about me, you know I am a big Steven Curtis Chapman fan. I have loved his music, and it has inspired me to go deeper in my walk with Christ. Yet, when his album All about Love came out, I was bit hesitant to buy it, thinking it may be inappropriate for a single guy to listen to. I was a frequent visitor to his internet message boards, and another visitor told me that it was okay, because it would introduce me to the beauty of romantic love in marriage in a good way. The song, All about Love, is the title track on this album. The lyrics that I keep coming back to again and again throughout my life are: “This is the reason we were made: to know the love of our Creator” and to give the love he has given us away”. These lyrics have showed me that the purpose of life is to know God and to give his love away to others around me. Sometimes I do a great job in doing the latter, and sometimes I don’t. I am reminded throughout Scripture that life is a journey, and it is a journey to loving God and loving people well. Will you join me on that journey today? Perhaps together we can show the world that love, at its simplest, is rooted in the heart of God. May we reflect God’s heart to the world today!
