The prompt for DAY 2786 is “Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new.” ― Ursula K. Le Guin ~ Your thoughts? Love Remewed "God is Love!" "Love is only of the four kinds that I have explained. (a) The love of God towards the identity of God. Christ has said God is Love. (b) The love of God for His children—for His servants. (c) The love of man for God and (d) the love of man for man. These four kinds of love originate from God. These are rays from the Sun of Reality; these are the Breathings of the Holy Spirit; these are the Signs of the Reality." "God is Love!" In each age God is revealed through one of the Holy Spirit flowing through one of God's Sacred Manifestations. Please Note: When man is used in the sacred scriptures it usually refers to humanity in general as opposed to a specific gender. Footnotes |
