1 John 2:15
Do not love the world or the things of the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
First off, we know we are to love creation because God entrusts us as stewards or caretakers of the “world” in that sense. But we are not to love the “world” in the sense of material possessions or in the sense of making objects of other people or things for our own selfish desires. It’s all about relationship. If we give of ourselves to God…God gives back to us in an endless circle of abundant giving and receiving! The more you give of yourself…the more God gives back. This is mirrored in the Trinity…an endless cycle of a loving relationship between Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The key is to be present…and in a loving relationship with everything in each moment.
