Love is a blessing

Love is a blessing that very few receive
for love truly is a difficult thing
for humans to give freely.

And yet this loving blessing
is all around you.

In the elements.

Absolutely everywhere.

When is there no love?
Only when your heart is closed,
closed so it cannot get through.

What is love?
It is the purest blessing
you could ever wish to receive
and as you wish for it
you block it out!

For to truly know love
you must be open
and just know that it already is!

You cannot wish for it -
for it will never come.
It will always be some distant promise
that might turn up tomorrow
or the day after.

True love is always around you.

It never leaves.

It does not desert you
like a star-crossed lover.

It doesn't get angry
and abandon you,
though you block it out
til it feels love has abandoned you.

How could love ever leave you?

It is the air
the sunshine
the rain
the wind.

One of them is always to be found around you,
caressing your beautiful skin,
brushing your hair with tenderness.

How can you not feel it?
How can you miss that loving feeling?
Are you truly blind?
You who thinks romantic love is all?

What can man give to you
that the sun and wind and rain cannot give?

For they cleanse your soul
and refresh you in spirit.

Love is amazing.
It is everywhere.

See it in the magical rainbow.
Hear it in the dawn chorus.
Know it in the thunder of night rain on a tin roof.

Everywhere is the miracle of love,
of life,
if you care to open those blind eyes,
open those deaf ears.

Feel what touches your skin.
Let it savour you
and you savour it forever.

Mix together, blend, for you are one.

You are one with the locust infestation
and the teaming ants.

You are one with mountain ranges
and the oceans.

You are one with the whole universe
and all the others too.

For there is only one.
And that one is love.

Love lights up your life
by sunshine during the day
and by moonlight by night.

Never are you left in darkness
for always love is burning brightly
all around you.

Shining its beacon
for you to see the way,
to live for yourself,
to be true to yourself.

Truly the loving
magnificent creature that you are.
That you all are.
From the ant to the elephant.
And man in between.

Man is great.
And so is all.

All that is and ever was
is Love.

It is still there
even when you sleep,
even when you look and do not see a thing.

Always it surrounds you
as a miracle of light.

Let it shine.
Let it warm your heart.
Let its glow warm you up
so that you can spread joy
throughout this world.

Let the glow light up your life
so you can light up others.

Let your love
touch the hearts of all those around you.
Always.
For it is so.

You are love.
Always.

You can't switch it off,
even for a second.
Now how amazing is that?!

People want the second coming of Christ
but there is a far bigger,
more impressive miracle
and it is here already.

Here in the stars, the moon, the planets.
Yes,
Love is that miracle.
Love is everything.
There is nothing else.

And what else could you ever want?
What else would you ask for?

For once you have truly felt it
and seen with wonder,
what this world holds for you
you will not seek a redeemer.
You are your own redeemer.

Only you can set yourself free.

But if you allow the love to touch you,
if you stop fighting it,
blocking it out,
you will know the magnificence
of all creation.

the greatest gift that God has given:

LOVE!!

Love is everything.

No more.
No less.

Love is everything.

Truly.
Love is everything.

We have written this before
because it is the ultimate truth.
We will write it again
and again
until you believe it.
We will not stop until all mankind
knows the glory of this truth.

Amen.
God bless you all.
