Being a loving person

Today was my first time streaming video on the new Desiring God website. (I've found it well done, and well organized.) In Piper's sermon last Sunday, he says,

You cannot be a loving person and not want your life to count for reaching unreached people. It is pure hypocrisy to say, "I love human beings," and do nothing in your life, have no increment of ambition, to see that the gospel reach people who don't know Him.

That is to say, the Gospel of necessity transforms our hearts with love for God and love for people such that we desire God to be glorified in the glad submission of all people, and we want other people to taste of the beauty and joy that are found truly and only in God.

Father, cause this love to pulse in our veins!
