None of us can create love: we can only
pass it along.
When we feel loved, we are loving; when we don't, we
aren't.
If we can't manufacture love — and we can't — where
does it come from?
I believe that love comes from God; all of
it. I believe that God is the only source of love.
God's love is always being poured out to us
indirectly, through others and through the natural world, but it can also
come directly from Him to you.
When you get love directly from God, then you
have more love in your life.
When we experience God's love directly,
our resentments diminish. We find instead that we have extra love to give.
Giving more, we also receive more from those around us.
(Not all cycles are vicious.)
How do we get God's love?
Not by doing the right things or by being
"good". God already loves each one of us — right now, as we are.
We don't need to get God to love us. We
need to get connected to Him so that we can experience His love.
We can come to experience God's love by
honestly, humbly and patiently seeking to know Him.
God's love and His truth come hand in
hand. If we seek to know the truth about Him, we will find His love.
