I've come to the realization that most Christians believe that because God is loving, He is focused on us completely, and that most Christians love Him because He loves them. Yet, this is why so many people get angry with God when things don't go their way. The truth is, God isn't focused on us, or in better words, His heart is not centered on us. We as Christians are called to have God-centered hearts, to glorify Him in everything we do. If God were to have a man-centered heart, then our hearts would be focused on a heart that's focused on us, and therefore we would have man-centered hearts as well. However, that's not what we're supposed to be focused on! So, this means that God has a God-centered heart, so that we could also be focused on Him. He wants us to love Him and glorify Him because He's God, not because He loves us. But God still loves us! It says in the Bible that we are most satsified when we glorfiy God, so by wanting us to glorify Him, He is truly loving us.
