If you ask people what God's highest priority for us is, what would they say? Some would say worship, others perhaps missions and evangelism. But it's pretty clear what God wants most from us: love. He told us to love Him with everything in us, and Jesus called that the greatest commandment. It's worship, yes, but more than that. You can declare God's greatness (or any other attribute) without telling Him you love Him for it. So even worship can fall short of His highest goal.

Of all the things we do each day, explicitly and specifically loving Him doesn't always make our list. Yet that's our highest purpose. Don’t let a day pass without spending at least some time actively adoring your Father. Not only tell Him the things on your heart, ask Him about His. Ask Him to unveil more sides of Himself, attributes and characteristics you’ve never seen. Above all, tell Him not only that you love Him, but what specifically you love about Him. As you do, His heart will be blessed—and so will yours.
