Spiritual Living

Most of us want others to experience the feeling of love and being loved when they are in our presence. The question is “how can we help others feel God’s love and acceptance when they are in our presence?”

The answer lies in this Spiritual principle: Your outer expression of love is in direct proportion to your inner experience of love. As you experience God’s presence within, you are experiencing love, because God is love. What you experience within yourself is what flows outwardly to others. When you feel angry within, that anger usually finds a way of escape through words and behaviors. So, it is with love. As we live in a conscious awareness of God’s presence or love, it finds a way to flow outwardly to others; through random acts of kindness, a smile, a gift, plus a variety of other loving expressions.

The love you feel within is the love you express without. Inner experience determines outer expression. As you are within, so you are without. These are all ways of saying the same thing….The love you experience within, by being consciously aware of God’s presence, is the love that will be touching others. As we are inwardly aware of love and being loved by God, it influences our perceptions of others, our attitude toward others and literally creates an external atmosphere that enriches others. People just feel better when they are around a person who is living in conscious awareness of God’s presence, or Love.

Your inner awareness of the Presence transmits and translates Itself to the unexplainable love others feel when they are around you. Your conscious awareness of Christ in you becomes a healing influence to those in your world. Your self-concept of being an unloving person must cease. That is not the truth about you! God’s life is your life and therefore God’s love is the love expressing Itself in, through and as you. Self preoccupation, as a self separate and apart from God, will short-circuit the flow of the Divine love within you to others. As you become Self aware, that is, aware of the Christ life that constitutes your life, spiritual, un-conditional God kind of love will flow, transforming, and nourishing everyone and everything in It’s path.

Go within. Seek. Decide that you will not be denied this inner experience of Spiritual Love, God. As the Prophet of old, “wrestled with an angel until he received a blessing,” so our determination should be to experience Love, which is God in expression. The two are inseperable. You cannot experience God without feeling love and loved. Nor can you feel love, being loved or loving without simultaneously feeling God’s presence.

The more you live in a conscious awareness of Love, God’s presence within you, the more other’s will feel loved when they are in your presence. As within, so without.

“Be still and know that I AM God.

Pass through the words and thoughts which continuously occupy your mind, and rise in consciousness to that place of silent knowing…beyond words and thoughts.  In this quiet place you will notice Me…the I AM that I AM. I am not only the I AM that I AM, but also the I AM that you are. I AM the One Life. The Life of ALL. When you are aware of Me as the I AM that you are, you are aware of All that I AM…Life, Love, Healing, Restoration, and Wholeness. There is nothing lacking in the I AM that I AM, therefore, there is nothing lacking in you, because the I AM that I AM is your true identity..Who you really are. You are not your mind, will, emotions or body. You are the individual expression of Me… the I AM that I AM. So, come to Me for Me. Seek Me alone. When you have a conscious awareness of Me, you have All that I Am, and I AM is all you will ever need. Go ahead, rise now above words and thoughts. Be still and know that I AM God. You will find that I AM waiting to meet you there. In my Presence, there is fullness of joy. I Am that I AM. I AM the I AM that you are. Besides Me there is none other.”
