Love of Humanity is Love of God

I am sure that everyone who is reading this article claims that he loves God immensely with all his heart and soul... But do we all truly ,really love God??

As strange as it may sound, In this world where its is normal for all of us to see corruption everyday, where we find people killing each other in the name of religion in almost every country , where jealousy , greed, anger,injustice, politics ,ego etc are a part of our daily lives , where humanity looks great only in books and lectures--with all these and much more negativity around and in us - do we really have enough place in our hearts to Love God who is our creator.

As strange as it may sound, where it is hard for us to love another human being who we can see and talk to --- we claim to love God who we can not see or even talk face to face. Infact no one to this date has any idea of how does God actually look like.... We all very well know that each one of us was created by God, himself but we still manage to abuse His divine creation and then claim to Love God immensely. But the truth is if we really do love God then first we have to learn to love his creation. We have to learn to love and respect other human beings. We have to start with baby steps by first loving the creatures that were created by Him. In other words, love humanity. Humanity which teaches us to be kind, loving, caring,forgiving, and above all it teaches us to be humble. Humanity spreads happiness and promotes peace of mind and inner contentment. No doubt, qualities like these are bound to bring us closer to God. So for me in simple words, Love of humanity is love of God.
