thoughts to the universe

I have been thinking about free will-why we have it, and what that means for us in relationships. I think that free will has more to do with God and our relationship with him than we think. I think that God, this supreme being, wants us to choose Him. Think about it. If we had no free will, and we had to love God, and do all that He said, where would be the glory for Him? There would be none. It wouldn't say much for God that He created beings to love Him, and they had no say in the matter. Instead, it says a great deal when one of His creations chooses to love Him. I believe that is why we seek love. That's why it means so much when someone chooses us over all the rest-because we were made in God's image. He is joyful when someone chooses Him, and that is why we are joyful when someone chooses us. We were made to love and be loved. That's why God says it is not good for man to be alone. Sometimes we think that it would be easier to just be alone and not have anyone to worry abuot but ourselves, but that is selfish. True love is meant to be shared. It means that we put someone else first. It means that I care more about you than myslef. That is hard sometimes, but that is love, and the rewards greatly outweigh the sacrifices if we are brave enough to just love.
