Loving ...

1 John 4:8 

The person who does not love does not know God,

because God is love.

 

Loving

 

The consciousness of God’s mercy

is not only for my sake

The nearness of His Presence

is a reality

It is not built on feelings

for that is not loving God

It is what happened within

when changed in totality

 

The part in you ... that loves in God,

is not part of yourself

The self ... that is before reborn

that self is dead and gone

Outside of feelings ... mind and will

the spirit got revived

To serve in oneness with the Holy

until the day is done
