What is The Best Use of Your Life?

Life is all about love. Because God is love, the most important lesson he wants us to learn on earth is how to love. It is in loving that we are most like Him, so love the foundation of every command He has given us.
Learning to love unselfishly is not an easy task. It runs counter to our self-centered nature that is why we're given a lifetime to learn it. Of course, God wants us to love everyone, but He is particularly concern that we learn to love others in His family. God wants us to be in regular close fellowship with other believers so that we can develop the skill of loving. Because love cannot be learned in isolation, we have to be around with people--irritating, imperfect, frustrating people.
For me, the best use of life is love. Love should be our top priority, primary objective, our greatest ambition. Just like what what St.Paul said: "No matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love."
Life without love is really worthless. Do you agree?

greetings,
yes, i agree. as far as i read in the Catholic Bible, this is GOD's choice for us. if we believe in GOD, we can't disallow HIS word, then say yes i believe in GOD! that's a contradiction that is impossible to do! to believe must include the instructions GOD has left for us to follow. to do otherwise is to actually be making GOD in "our" own image.
GOD's love and grace always be with you.
