About This Quote
The reality of loving God is loving him like he's a Superhero who actually saved you from stuff rather than a Santa Claus who merely gave you some stuff. This famous quote is one of the most profound of all time. It reveals something about how we should love God. The problem of our world is that it places God in the place of Santa Claus.
We think that if God just gives us something, then that's all that He does for us. We think that God owes us something because he has given us gifts, but this is the wrong way to view Him. The correct way to view God is to view Him as a superhero who really saved us from stuff.
