Jesus tells us to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength." (Mark 12:30)

Paul tells us that we are also to "walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given himself for us." (Ephesians 5:2)

God commands us to love him as he has loved us. In other words, he has loved us with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In a sense, God has worshiped us. Don't get me wrong, he has not attributed any of his own attributes to us — we remain creature, and he, creator.

But he has in a very real way subordinated himself to our good — Jesus "made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men." (Philippians 2:7)

This is the God Christians worship. One who has taken worthless creatures and raised them to glory, amplifying his own in the process.
