What is the will of the Father in Heaven?

Today we take a look at what is doing the will of the father. Taken from Matthew 12:46 -48

Jesus was told that his mother and brothers were waiting outside wanting to speak to him, but Jesus answered,"Who is my brother and my mother". Then pointing to His disciples He says "these are My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My Father that person is My brother, My sister and  mother."

In that passage of scripture we see that in order to relate to Christ we have to do the will of the Father, and this is being in relationship with Christ.

Definitions:
Relationship: connect to another, common background
Will : strong desire, intention, legal written directions,faculty by which a person decides what to do
Faculty :: authority,authorization

So this means that, in order  to connect to Christ or have a common backgroung to be related to Him and be one, we have to do the will of the Father. So what are the Father's intentions and strong desires? What is it that He wants us to do and live by? Is it or us to love one another and love Him with all our hearts and souls and our strength? Is it to live our lives entirely for Him? Is it for us to know how His Kingdom functions so we can have on earth again? Is it for us to hate evil and love good and seek His Kingdom and His righteousness?

My friend i believe it is all these things that we are to do and live by, starting by loving one another like we love ourselves for we all love God and our Lord and savior, so why can't we love one another?
