“ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind…’ ”
– Luke 10:27

What is Christianity all about? A lot of us mistakenly believe Christianity is about following the right doctrine, sticking to a list of rules, going to church Sundays and Wednesdays. A lot of us abandon our hearts and try to live out our faith by the right dogma or ethics, by going after morality. Look around – you see people doing it all the time; but does it work? No, because Christianity is not about all that. Christianity is about, above all other things, a love affair with God. It all revolves around love! God loves you and wants an intimate love affair with you, even more pleasurable than sex. Everything he’s done, everything he’ll ever do, is his effort to get your attention, his voice whispering, “Come to me, my Beloved!” It isn’t about rules or obedience or doctrine or external affairs – it is about God’s heart connecting with ours. It is about God pursuing us and saying. “Come into my bedchamber.” He stands at the door of our heart and knocks, anxious to come inside and be submersed in his Beloved!
