Love for God


“God is not honored by groundless love. In fact, there is no such thing. If we do not know anything about God, there is nothing in our mind to awaken love. If love does not come from knowing God, there is no point calling it love for God. There may be some vague attraction in our heart or some unfocused gratitude in our soul, but if they do not  arise from knowing God, they are not love for God.”

<< John Piper, from Think: The Life of the Mind and the Love of God, p. 90 >>

BLESSED TO BLESS...
