How To Love?

What is love? How can I be love itself in entirety? How can I love and be loved?

  • In "Stranger By the River " by Paul Twitchell, the authour defined love as "the essence, spirit, soul, and life of all that exist, itself unchangeable and immortal". Wont it be good to be the spirit of all things? On page 138, the book says " Love turns every thing to God and even overcomes death". Isn't that fantastic? On page 169, it goes further to say "Love holds the key to all problems. It has been possible through divine love for man to become as God, and when God becomes man it is also due to His love for man" Isn't this amazing? pg 80 is more intruging. It says " All things will gravitate to thee if ye will let love enter thine own hearts, without compromise." Isn't it too simplicit? Page 69 has this to say. "Make love thy master, for love is God, and whosoever loves God shall love that which we call love. It is love that binds thee to God, and it is love which unbinds thee from evil and sets thy feet upon the path of righteousness" Amazing?

  • Answer:

    In a perfect world? YES In our corrupted world? Almost none of that is true! Love must be brutal to the brutal, in order to love the rest. Kind to the kind, so It will continue so. Gentle to the wounded, so peace may reign, and unequal in its care, because some need more In the end, love must be of itself and in itself fulfilled

Serestar, I am so happy for you. You are approaching the ultimate destiny of the human race. The things you read about in that book, are hinting at the most amazing thing that can happen to us. Exactly how this happens, is something most people don't understand. Our Creator waits at the door to our hearts, patiently hoping that we will open the door, and invite Him in. When we do so, He sends His Spirit into us, and bonds with us. When this happens, we become new creatures, part mortal, and part Immortal. The false values of materialism and fear begin to fall away. Love and Wisdom become the foundation of our choices, and we enter into a life much larger than our own. In time, we forget that we ever bothered with the things that occupy the thoughts of mortals. We find Peace, and Wisdom. Love becomes the Mover of thought, as we enter the path of Eternity.

Yes, Twitchell is too simplistic and idealistic. A great source of input for consideration, as you develop your own definition of what love it. You should write down your thoughts as you read and explore, and write your own book eventually!
