What is it, really, that differenciates us from cows?
"So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;"
Genesis.1.27
"God is love."
1John.4.8
The only thing that really separates us from cows, is that we look like God. If we are made in his image, and if he is love... then it stands to say that we also, have the ability to love!
Therefore the one thing we have, above all the rest of creation, is the ability to love!
Now, God doesn't do things like this for no great purpose... does it stand, then, that our purpose, as humans, is to love?
Certainly Jesus meant it when he said they would know us by our love? (John.13.34-35)
Love well.
Pursue loving God, pursue loving people.
