What Does a Loving God Look Like?
God is not “high maintenance.” He is not touchy—sulking and withdrawing from us when we don’t do exactly as He wishes. Some people use this as a way to manipulate others. I’ve had a few friends like that. It always made me feel insecure, like I needed to do something to regain the offended person’s love and approval. It’s a way of controlling people. We don’t have to “tip toe” around God to stay in His good graces.
