The overflowing love and goodness of God is the fundamental reason why the universe exists. Richard Sibbes writes that God “delights to spread his beams and his influence in inferior things, to make all things fruitful. Such a goodness is in God as is in a fountain, or in the breast that loves to ease itself of milk.”1 Every disciple of Jesus Christ carries this spiritual DNA within them. As we are born of the Spirit and grow into mature sons, our desires begin to align with the Lord’s: “I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.”2 To be joined to Lord is to participate in the divine community and allow the desire he has to fill the creation with his goodness consume us!
