God chose you to be the recipient of His love and the vehicle through whom His love will be carried to the people of the world. His love for us is unmerited, unending and universally expressed to us and through us. As amazing as His love is often our response falls well short of His standard. Malachi deals here with the parallel comparison between the love God gives to us despite and in contrast to the disgraceful way in which we treat Him. How are you loving God? - Malachi 1
