Love
"Love is the lodestone of life, the great and supreme Reality. Love is the highest gift of heaven, the greatest good on earth, and the treasure of all our search. It is the end and aim of everything. We cannot doubt that God is Love, because love renews and reinvigorates while hate kills. People who love animals and understand them are not afraid of them, for love transmits some subtle essence of life to everything it touches, awakening within all things an equal awareness and response. This is true also of human relationships. Love is the greatest healing power there is and no one feels whole without it.
But love is something that need not be confined to only a few persons; that love that we have for the few can be extended to more without losing the love of the few. And what a wonderful experience and realization it would be if we learned to love everyone as we love the few! Right now our vision is hardly great enough to include this larger good. But when love becomes more complete it will take in a larger territory and we will experience a greater degree of livingness.
Today my love goes out to all people and to all things. There is no fear in this love for perfect love casts out all fear. There is no doubt in this love for faith penetrates all doubt and reveals a unity at the center of everything that embraces all things. This love flowing through me harmonizes everything in my experience, brings joy and gladness to everything, brings a sense of security and well-being to everyone. I realize that the love flowing through, in, and around me and all things is one vast all-enveloping essence and force forever emanating from the living God."
As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. —JOHN 15:9
