Lenny, thank you
for forwarding this letter! I love the part where it says:
"The love in My heart catapulted itself in one instant.
'What would love, if packaged, look like?' I wondered. From
the power of this one desire of Mine, the whole universe was created, and
it was created Love. Love demonstrated itself. There was nothing else for
it to demonstrate. "
Maybe it's "time" to start contemplating that
instant instead of that "other instant" where
nothing happened
anyway!
God said
Love is meant to swim like the fishes in the ocean. How smoothly fish
swim, and how smooth the flow of love when the intellect does not put up a
song and dance.
Left to its own devices, Love swims in and out and around and brings
unfathomable joy. Any obstacles to love are manmade.
Love has a distinct destiny. It enters everywhere. It keeps moving and
never leaves. The Oneness of love multiplies itself in the hearts of
humankind. Love multiplies itself in your heart. Love is so full of
expansion that it bursts all boundaries. Love lays low the boundaries that
man has proclaimed.
At the beginning, there was a burst of love so great that it could only
be called Creation. Creation did not come from thinking. Left to the
obscurity of thought, Creation would not yet have echoed itself throughout
the Universe. It would still be being planned.
What happened is: The love in My heart catapulted itself in one
instant. "What would love, if packaged, look like?" I wondered. From the
power of this one desire of Mine, the whole universe was created, and it
was created Love. Love demonstrated itself. There was nothing else for it
to demonstrate.
You do not possibly imagine that Creation came from anything but love,
do you? There was nothing but love for it to come from. Only the majesty
of love could create the wholeness of Creation in the first place. Only
the majesty of love could burst forth into such a song that it is singing
itself still. I hear the reverberations of this song as clearly as the
first moment it sprang from My throat.
Be in the thrall of love, beloveds. Never mind all the raging wisdom.
The world likes to hear itself talk. Listen to love instead. Love is the
force of the universe. World talk is not. World powers are not. Money is
not. Prestige is not. These are all preoccupations. Be occupied with love
instead.
Could not love be the theme of your life? You know I am speaking of
more than personal love. I speak of universal love. I speak of love
immense. I speak of the totality of love. Personal love is a good place to
start, yet it is only a step. Love is not satisfied to stay so small. Love
of its very nature does not bow to boundaries, and therefore, it must
burst them. This is what love does. It cuts through boundaries. Boundaries
are so weightless in the face of love. There is a tidal wave of love, and
there is no stopping it. Love is going to take you with it. You might as
well surrender to love now. It is what you want.
Heretofore, you surrendered to disturbance. World events took you over.
You believed in them ferociously. You were immersed in world events. You
even printed papers about them. You put them up on TV. You advertised
illness and disaster on billboards.
Now you will advertise love. You will advertise it by living it. You
will hold love high before you. Love will become your temple. You will
build your life as an altar to love. Love is the only thing of
consequence, and you will not give so much of yourself to what, next to
love, is inconsequential. All the energy that goes into complaint and the
pointing out of error will now be unified in love. Today you join a march
of love. Today you sign up for it. It is inevitable that you will. You
will find yourself marching in love, taking over the world in love. You
will be caught up in love anyway, so you might as well enroll now. Sign
your name on the banner of love. Here is where you sign. Right here, in
your heart. This is good enough for Me. |
