Our love for God and each other should exceed our need for God and each other. Relationships based on love are long lasting whereas relationships based on need, come to an end once the need is met. Most of the times the later is true and as we take God for granted so we take each other for granted once the need is met. Our relationships should therefore be based on love just as God so loved us beyond our imagination to reconcile humanity to Himself through Jesus Christ His Son, who is God's love made visible to us. Through God's unconditional love, we have become His beloved children who need to love Him in return for all that He has done.
