Love should be your top priority, prime objective, and greatest ambition. Love is not a good part of your life; it's the most important part. The Bible says, Let love be your greatest aim.
It is not enough to say, "One of the things I want in life is to be loving." as if it's in your top ten list. Relationships must have priority in your life above everything else. Why?
Life without love is really worthless.
Paul makes this point: "No matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love."
