What Is Love
Much has been said and many have spoken in love, one for the other, but What is Love?
A sentient being once asked God that question and God replied: "It is that which is
without condition, without limitation, and without need.
Because it is without condition, it requires nothing in order to be expressed. It asks
nothing in return. It withholds nothing in retaliation.
Because it is without limitation, it places no limitation on another. It knows no ending,
but goes on forever. It experiences no boundary or barrier.
Because it is without need, it seeks to take nothing not freely given. It seeks to hold
nothing not wishing to be held. It seeks to give nothing not joyously welcomed.
And it is free. Love is that which is free, for freedom is the essence of what God is, and
love is God, expressed.
If sentient beings understood this, lived this, everything would change, both in their lives
and in the lives of those around them.
Have you not read that you are to love your neighbour as yourself. The first priority in
this adage is to love yourself, for if you do not love your self, you cannot love your
neighbour. And if you do not love your brother, you do not love yourself. It is a catch 22
situation that is only broken when you first love ME.
When you love ME, you love yourself, for there is naught but God. And when you
express your love for yourself, you can then love your brethren as yourself, for no man
ever hated his own body.
Many sentient beings believe that my love is unconditional, but the question I now ask of
you, is, can you love God unconditionally. Because you can only receive My love in the
way you give Me yours. And you can only receive another's love in the way that you give
them yours.
As I have stated before, the God you love is the love you give."
