Below are the links to my original posts for the lessons we are reviewing today:
Day 127: There is no love but God's.
Day 128: The world I see holds nothing that I want.
Again, we begin our meditation with the following:
My mind holds only what I think with God.
Sit comfortably in silence and close your eyes. Breathe deeply, in... and out. In... and out. Imagine that with each breath you take, the light of your heart swells larger and larger. It soon encompasses your entire body. It continues to expand until the room where you sit is filled with the gentle glow your heart radiates. It becomes larger still, now extending into everyone and everything within the miles surrounding you... Then out to the whole world... Further still, as your heart now holds the entire solar system... then our very galaxy... the galaxies which surround us... and as it continues to swell, it finally fills the universe in all its vastness. Everything there is and ever was, even that which is out of our reach (but never beyond the bounds of our imagination), is now held within your heart. The Light of your Love has now joined with God's, and where you once saw yourself as separate and alone, you now sit from God's vantage point. You think His Thoughts. You feel His Joy. You are now aware, as the Whole of our universe is contained in you, that We are All One.
There is no love but God's.
All True Love is the Love of God. Though our expressions of Love here on earth may vary, the content is always One and the same. Love that is conditional is not Love at all. This kind of "love" - one that barters and breaks, one that steals and cheats - is brittle and dangerous. This kind of "love" is a deception, for it masks the fact that it is actually fear. True Love is all-inclusive. True Love does not discriminate or place demands. Love accepts and Sees the Truth in All there Is. Love recognizes our Oneness, and in so doing shares the Gifts of God with everyone.
The world I see holds nothing that I want.
The world in which we live is a temporary world. It is a world constructed in time, which in Reality does not exist. This is the land of illusion. Some illusions are representations of the Truth beyond - nothing in and of themselves to be sought or cherished, but reminders of the Glory that awaits us. Some illusions are false icons, representing something which does not exist at all. These illusions manifest from the fear-based thoughts we think. There is no place for them in Timelessness, for God could not create what He is not, and God is only Love.
As we open our eyes and return to the physical world we inhabit, let us remember where our Truth resides. Only within our hearts will we find the Unconditional Love of God. Only within our hearts will we See all that we really want, and recognize that it is already ours. Let the Light of your heart reach every dark corner and extend into the far reaches of our universe, and you will hold the Key to Heaven wherever you may go.
Until tomorrow,
Journeyman
