All Is Full of Love
Posted: Fri Nov 06, 2015 9:58 pm
Hi everyone!
Nice to meet you all, I am Mark from the UK. It is nice to have a place where people can connect about the Divine Truth. My favourite subject is love, because I believe love is the catalyst for everything, and it is the particle that holds all other particles together (speaking atomically here!). To sum it up, God is everything, God is in everything, God is what Love is. God is Love and Love is God. That is how it feels for me anyway, I don't know if it is a good way to put it. Nothing good happens without love.
For me personally, my childhood was not the best to put it lightly, and I felt a deep sense of being unloved. And I carry that with me. However, it pushed me to really want to know what love is, it was my most fascinating subject of interest. What is love? Of course the world will say one thing, and, I don't know, having gone down the relationship route of love, feeling a need to be 'in love' it made me think the world is wrong in it's romantic portrayal of love. But I never stopped looking for the answer to, what is love? Looking for the love which is of a godly and pure nature. And I don't mean romantically. I'm sure there is a possible addiction here, if someone can advise on that then great.
I'm very open to learning, having made so many mistakes and yet discoveries in my life. I like to think I've always moved forward, somehow I am always able to hear my heart, even at the darkest points of my life when I felt that it was over.
I find myself somewhat judgemental (an overuling mind), not in the typical way, but in the way of judging others by how much love is coming out of them, or rather the opposite of love coming out of them. Somehow it builds a feeling of fear, thinking of the destruction they are capable of (I somehow exagerrate the emotion, actions or decisions devoid of love scare me). Observational, analytical. It doesn't serve me because this turns into a somewhat hopelessness, that I am in an unloving world. Leading to a feeling of being trapped, feeling unconnected, feeling like God is not there. To some degree I feel my 'generalised' judgement of the world has some truth, but logical judgement compared to spiritual judgement, does not have truth. Love is the truth. To love your enemies, to love those who persecute you, to love those who you witness persecuting others. And as I know, when I am truly myself, mysoul, that I must love all 7 billion people on this planet unconditionally.
In regards to LoA, I feel I am spending a lot of time observing lack of love rather than focusing on love, and I know this is part of the issue, than can spiral my emotions out of alignment.
When people choose to use logical expression to inspire, like, picture quotes on social networks - I do not know why they choose this over being a loving expression 'from their self, their soul'. If a person says, read this book, or read the bible, my soul is saying if you feel such a way why do you not read something of your choosing, why must God come through something rather than you? This is an example of this observation, and type of judgements I have. But they weigh like a heavy burden, when I see how people choose to be, or the ways they choose to love or not at all. Any perspective here also much appreciated.
I am here to learn, to progress, to change for the better, to be closer to God, but mostly, to be an instrument of God if I can, to inspire and uplift the people around me. I've always wanted to make the world a better place, I don't know if thats some addictive fantasy, but it always felt that is what I am here for, to find the way. And I truly believe, people are important in making that happen for each other. The church is the people, it is not a building or an institution - people sharing divine truth that we may each be more aligned with it.
Love aligns things, and in a place that harbours the divine truth of it, it can align those who feel a somewhat hopeless, confused state of being like I have come to feel. I'm looking for inspiration and change, and a sense of community so that I can be a part of a community and feel a part of it in a positive way. I embrace what people have to say about me, if my heart knows it comes from a loving place no matter how critical.
I speak this is kindness and love, and I hope to get to know you all better.
Yours faithfully,
Mark
