What Does God Want and Why?

  • 0:00 - 0:03
    When you understand what God wants and
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    why he wants us to love him and it's
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    because he loves us, then what you
  • 0:07 - 0:11
    realize is that is the goal of creation.
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    That is the destiny on your life. That
  • 0:13 - 0:14
    is the goal of everything. In other
  • 0:14 - 0:16
    words, most of us, we spend our lives
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    trying to get somewhere. You're trying
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    to get a better job. You're trying to
  • 0:19 - 0:20
    get moved to another house. You're
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    trying to get somewhere else. But the
  • 0:22 - 0:24
    place where you're trying to get to is a
  • 0:24 - 0:26
    place where you love God and he loves
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    you. That's it. In other words, when you
  • 0:28 - 0:30
    get to that point, there's a deep peace
  • 0:30 - 0:31
    because I'm not saying that other thing
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    don't other things don't develop in your
  • 0:33 - 0:35
    life, but you've hit the point that
  • 0:35 - 0:36
    that's the that's the place you're
  • 0:36 - 0:37
    trying to get to. There is no more
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    struggle. You don't have to get to it.
  • 0:39 - 0:41
    You have to develop that point, but
  • 0:41 - 0:42
    you're at you got to the place. This is
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    the final stop on the train. You know,
  • 0:44 - 0:46
    everybody gets off. This is it. God
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    loves you. You love God. That you and it
  • 0:48 - 0:52
    it creates a depth of peace that
  • 0:52 - 0:53
    circumstances will never be able to get
  • 0:53 - 0:55
    to it. And think about this. Nobody in
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    this room of course, but most other
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    human beings on the planet are trying to
  • 0:59 - 1:01
    improve their circumstances that that's
  • 1:01 - 1:02
    going to make their life better. But
  • 1:02 - 1:04
    really, God is saying the circum
  • 1:04 - 1:06
    circumstances are really secondary. The
  • 1:06 - 1:07
    main thing is just for you to love God
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    and God loves you. And sometimes in the
  • 1:09 - 1:11
    worst circumstances, you're more in the
  • 1:11 - 1:12
    place you should be. But when you
  • 1:12 - 1:14
    realize that you say, you say, "Well,
  • 1:14 - 1:16
    listen, I I may may not be that smart. I
  • 1:16 - 1:18
    may not be that talented. I may not be
  • 1:18 - 1:21
    that strong, but I can love God and he
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    can love me." You got it. You got You
  • 1:23 - 1:26
    got the only thing you need to
