Summary/Abstract: The relationship between God and man is a relationship based on love. Generally, men want to experience the divine blessing and protection. The Lord loves all men and takes care of every creature. Yet when humans want to be closer to God, to benefit from His love and special care, God first expects his followers to love Him. Therefore, the Lord blesses and protects those who love God and obey His words.
