GOD IS LOVE. GOD IS LIGHT.
God's essential nature is love — that the Eternal has a heart, and is not without sensibilities and emotions.
And we have known and believed the love that God has to us. God is love; and he that dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him.
We must have "something to love, to clasp affection's tendrils round." If there were nothing in God to which our hearts could appeal, we should retire within ourselves and become encased in icy selfishness. A biting frost would wither our affections, and each soul would become like a barren tree, having but a starved existence in solitude and shade.
