What does it mean that we are “created to be love?” Is that just a typo? Not at all!

First and foremost, God loves you! God created you, everyone you know, and everyone who exists to be loved, to love, and to be love. These three things can't be separated from one another. It's true, love is something you feel and something you do, but most importantly love is who you are!

We have each been given this purpose by God, to be who we are, to be the love we are made out of, to embody the love God has for us and for all creation in our words, our actions, our interactions, and our relationships. Individually and together, we find new ways to live out this love we've been shown by God in Jesus everyday. We are created to be love!
