The more closely man approaches God through love, the greater the reality—actuality—of that man. The more man withdraws from God, the more nearly he approaches nonreality—cessation of existence. When man consecrates his will to the doing of the Father's will, when man gives God all that he has, then does God make that man more than he is. ~ The Urantia Book, (117:4.14)

Jesus essentially began His ministry by highlighting the connection between the Messianic prophecies and His arrival as Jesus of Nazareth.

We Can Love with all our heart, mind, soul and strength ,whenever we summon courage to edify, encourage, comfort, honor, support and bring life to the hopeless, we create access/room for them to discover God’s kindness. This is definitely a great Love to God in the life of his Creatures.
Mercy is the natural and inevitable offspring of goodness and love. The good nature of a loving Father could not possibly withhold the wise ministry of mercy to each member of every group of his universe children.
