Toby Mac has a new song out called "Made to Love". It is upbeat and catchy, not your typical love song sound but it hits on a simple truth that we don't often think about. We were made to love and be loved by God. That's it. It's so simple. If we could just keep our eyes upon Jesus and remember that we are made to love him then everything else would just fall into place. Afterall, the Great Commandment that Jesus himself gave us tells us to love God with everything we have. If we truly loved God wouldn't we also love our neighbor? We'd have to since that is what would please God. Wouldn't our pain diminish and our selfishness end if all our thoughts were to pleasing God because we just love him so darn much?

Made To Love
Toby Mac/From the album "Portable Sounds"

The dream is fading now I am staring at the door
I know it’s over cause my feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection, I ain’t feeling what I see
It’s no mystery

What ever happened to a passion I could live for?
What became of the flame that made me feel more?
And when did I forget?

Chorus:
That I was made to love You
I was made to find You
I was made just for You
Made to adore You
I was made to love and be loved by You
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And You said You’d keep me never would You leave me
I was made to love
And be loved by You

The dreams alive with my eyes open wide
Back in the ring You got me swingin’ for the grand prize
I feel the haters spittin’ vapors on my dreams
But I still believe?

I’m reaching’ out, reaching’ up, reaching’ over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And Daddy I’m on my way?

Chorus:
That I was made to love You
I was made to find You
I was made just for You
Made to adore You
I was made to love and be loved by You
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And You said You’d keep me never would You leave me
I was made to love
And be loved by You

Anything I would give up for You
Everything I give it all away
