God wants everyone to be saved. As a child of his, I want what he wants. God not only wants everyone to be saved, but he works to this end. As a child of his, I work because God works.
Jesus did not come to condemn, but to save people. (The world already stood condemned.) He sends me out into the world to save people. As his Follower, I see each person as a soul in need of forgiveness.
God is perfect in his Love. He demands that I, as a child of his, be perfect in love as well. He wants his love to extend to all people.
Jesus speaks a true word that saves. He sends me to speak his same word. As his follower, I am ready at all times to offer to others the opportunity to hear, believe, and obey his word.
So like the Lord Jesus Christ, we say:
So he told them, “My Father is working until now, and I too am working” Jn 5.17.
