Living In The Presence of God (VolII/PtII)-Chapter 10

[Guest guest]

CHAPTER 10

Love, that roams, will not, ever, stay to become divine. Love, that

serves one's own selfish interests, will never find the joy of purity.

Love, My child, must not come nor arise to ever question - it must come

to soothe every doubt. Devotion is not love that arises only to suit a

particular occasion - it is the commitment to love and serve, no matter

what the tide of life brings with it. Devotion comes, when one illuminates the heart with the purity of complete faith.

The glow of faith, My dear, is so divine that it will allow the devoted

one to find the direction to its only lover - his Master, even in the

dark, in the fog, in the storm, by merely reflecting its glow in his

every call! From the power of sincere faith, arises the highest form

of love - a love that binds even the Lord of Creation!

 

One becomes a true devotee, when he, not only learns to live

life with love, but when he learns to love life with his inner strength

that gives him the constant link to God. Such love comes, when one

becomes completely immersed in the joys of the self. The inner vision,

to find one's own inner contentment, must become so clear that the

windows of the outer vision will close and stop giving the false

deluded direction. The one that is able to see himself as a part of

all creation will never attempt to destroy any part of it, for any of

its loss is nothing but his own shame!

 

True love will come, My child, but first, one must be able to

appreciate the beauty of its truth. True love will not arise, until

one has found every strength that allows it to emerge from its womb.

These divine strengths will only arise, when man makes the error only a

dream and makes life the truth of perfection. Yes! Perfection, in

whatever he does, so he does not fail God, even by the slightest. The

ideals must be the highest - the dedication must be the fullest, and

only then, will the action find the direction to its divine completion!

 

Loving God, is when one is able to express it with its divine glory! Frustration must never arise in true devotion, for such a one only wants to love and the one that wants takes

from his own self the strength to be able to love, perfectly. Such a

one gives his heart to the Lord with the expectation of being paid for

his sacrifice. Such a heart will not be accepted by the Master, hence,

he will become heartless and will lose his heart to the world, and the

worldly lover will find it more difficult to appreciate the world of

the Holy Spirit. Use time wisely, yet, do not make haste to become the perfect devotee of God. The lack of patience will rob you from developing complete faith and selfless love. Concentrate, always, to improve the present state of purity, and one will then, automatically, develop the inner reservoir of faith and divine love. Without purity, My child, one cannot comprehend God, clearly, neither His love nor your love for Him. Hence, remember, devotion does not arise in one day. It comes, when one removes from within him all the bad - it comes, when one finds within him all the good - it comes, when one experiences his own love for God much higher than any form or part of life! Within the journey of devotion, itself, lies the divine gifts. Hence, enjoy the journey - receive its richness, experience its joy of being ever content, and once you have reached its end, know, My child, that you stand

at the first step of experiencing Godhood! Yes! A perfect devotee will not only see God and know God, but will surely become Him, for the purest form of the devoted love merges with the strength of its devotion to become only love! Love! Love! Devotion is not only the path to love God, but it is the love that paves its way to find the love of God! Do not despair, ever, for being hopeless is being Godless. If you are not ready to give up, then you will, one day, be the winner! The prize of devotion is not given to just anybody - it is given only to the one that is ready and able to carry the weight of this serious commitment.
