Sometimes you hear people say that God created other beings because he was lonely, but that makes little sense. Today I ran across a comment about 1 John 4:8, which says that “God is love.” In other words, that is his main quality, the essence of his being. The comment I read was, “Jehovah became the Creator as an expression of his endearing quality of love.” That makes more sense. The thought that comes to me, then, is that God created the universe and other intelligent creatures out of his love for everything and everyone that could come to exist.

I agree with you and have also read the same thing. But it also included the thought that he loved life so much that he wanted to give this gift to other creations of his. What a wonderful and thoughtful creator we have.
Nice one. That seems somehow to be the same forsight that he uses to see the good in people that they could demonstrate in a different set of circumstances. I enjoy your posts. Thanks.
