Guest guest Posted May 12, 2005 Report Share Posted May 12, 2005 Light and Love The love between father and son, husband and wife, friend and friend is now artificial, not'heart'ificial! The son sues the father in the courts, the attachment between husband and wifedoes not last long, friends fight when selfish interests prevail and so on, so on... Imagine a newly wedded couple strolling in a park! The man sees a thorn on the road, which thelady may put her boot upon; he suddenly rushes towards her and pulling her away, he says,"Thank God! I saw it in time!" Three months later, they stroll along and the man sees a thorn.What happens? He says, "There is a thorn right there. Do not step on it." Three more monthspass; the thorn is found across their path. He shouts, "Can't you see that thorn? Why are youbarging forward as if the entire road is yours!" That is the history of the love which is idealisedso grandly. The love that God bears to you or that you bear to God is not so transient or egoistic.God will never give you up, nor should you ever give up your hold on God.
