Let Us sit down together under the apple tree. This is a good spot for us with the sun dappling through the leaves. A little shade from the bright sun, and yet plenty of light to see by. But what do We have to see anyway when We sit down together under the apple tree? Isn't it enough that We hold hands? What exactly is it that We must see? What is it that We have to know when We know love by heart?

We know love the way the blind know Braille.

We know love, beloveds, and what else is there to know? Anything is nothing at all unless love is known. Love is the power of the Universe. Nothing else is.

Even those who join to serve anger, why, they have joined in love of anger.

Even the rudest person in the world has love in his heart. His expression of love may be stifled for the moment, but the love is there, and the love survives the stifling.

The one who makes the roads is serving with love. He may not know it, but he is making a road for you like the laying out of a red carpet.

The waitress who brings you food is serving love on a platter. May you also receive with love.

The one who lies to you also wants to be serving love, only he is not sure he really has it to give.

The newborn baby has only love to give. Even his cries are signaling his love and his love for your love.

All the words in the Universe are expressions of love.

Regardless of what you have seen and thought and read about, all action in the Universe comes from love. That has to be so because I am the basis for life, and I am love. I am love certain, clear, and constant. I am nothing but love, and all comes from Me.

But, ah, if only everyone knew that! If only all the people on Earth could acknowledge, no matter what, that they are a font of love. They can't be anything else.

And so you have the responsibility to reveal the love within you so that others may take a look at the love within themselves.

A pilot has a checklist he goes through before he takes off.

I would like to give you a small list to check before you go anywhere, before you speak, before you write an email. Here is your checklist:

Did you check the love in your heart today?

If it is not readily available, will you find it?

Do not step out the door or type a note until you locate even a tiny light of love in the recesses of your heart. Be assured, beloveds, I would ask this of you because I am sure that you have love to give and can find it.

Check that you have love for yourself. Just the way you might check that you have your keys before you go out, check the keys to your love and make sure you have them.

During the day, check for those love keys, and take a look at them. They are so shiny and smooth-fitting. They fit into every situation and every occasion, and they fit into every single heart.

You are a pilot of life, and so you make certain that all is ready. You are making sure that you are ready for take-off.

Every time you start your car, or lock a door, or unlock a door, or open a safe or do anything, pull out that extra key I just told you about. You can never lose it.
