“Love is the only appropriate choice for everything we may experience.” Think for a moment about the blessedness of love in your life. Secondly, think how life would be if you did not know of the power of love.

We are told of a great love in the Four Gospels. Actually, Jesus committed his entire ministry, his whole life to love.” Another point, suppose the scripture had not included in Luke 23:34: “Father forgive them for they know not what they do?” 

According to the Gospel writers this verse is known as the first word Jesus spoke from the cross. He was expressing a Godly love. Likewise, he tapped into the dynamic power of love which sustained him in these last and dark hours of his earthly life.  

The spiritual giants throughout the eons of time emanated a Universal Love not out there somewhere; they felt it within themselves and then expressed love in all they did. Love is a quality of Divine Spirit we each have inside ourselves.

Not one of these masters, saints, holy people put a patent on love. They freely gave it. And many times gave us the instructions, demonstrated through their lives how to give love fully and as though there was no bottom to love. 

For as we share love, we receive even more. Sometimes certainly we feel depleted of love. Those are the moments we are to open inside and receive from the infinite Source closer than breathing and in our midst. Love will renew us and fill us with love’s sustenance. 

It is an inside job to replenish with love. When we look outside ourselves to be filled and restored in love, it is not the sustaining love of Spirit: For instance, if we seek to fill our life with material things to gain love; or buy a new wardrobe to attract love; or maybe we seek out a person in order to feel loved.

Love is everywhere present. The truest Source, the most lasting way to know, be filled and renewed in love is found inherently in us. In quiet times, moments of contemplation, resting or being in nature, observing a beautiful scene, in meditation and stillness, even in those moments of tears, sadness and holding a baby, a loved one, or a friend in grief — we feel love and are filled with love’s power and potential once more.

Unquestionably, people, pets, creative endeavors, and your giving spirit fill and restore you in the fullness of love. Mystical experiences, through uplifting stories, by turning within and seeking the higher power within, we find the one true Source of love.

We feel united once again. I use the word ‘feel’ here for you, me, our neighbor and loved ones, any human being and expression of life cannot be separated for one second from love. It is ever with us and in the center of ourselves. Love surrounds us in its embrace eternally. 

Our real nature is love. Hence, whenever there is a sense of lack of some kind — in any upset in a relationship or misunderstanding, imbalance, the feeling of distance from a person or persons — it is a direct call to love by first feeling love within ourselves — Divine love. 

Then express it to our hearts content. Let love heal, adjust, restore and replenish. We let love loose to work seeming miracles in ourselves, in our lives and in the world.

Love is the choice, the power to touch and realize inside ourselves then step out and give the greatest gift we each have, ourselves and the unbounded love within us.
