Suddenly, There Was Love

God said:

Sometimes love is oblique. It does not come right out and declare itself. It comes from an angle, and you discover it. Love discovered is like an unexpected smile, just the corner of the mouth turned up, yet it is there, the smile. It is like you find that someone has unexpectedly left a rose on your pillow or held a chair for you. There is a consideration, a courtesy, maybe a common courtesy, and yet you know the great love behind that common courtesy. The courtesy had not been common for you.

One day you discover that you are loved. Despite all your façade, you find out that you are loved by another human being and by Me. You wake up to the fact. “Hey, I am loved. I am really loved. God and someone love me, truly love me. Me.” And your heart dances across the stars.

Love came to you when you were not looking. Suddenly, there was love. It was right before you, a miracle of love given to you freely just when you thought you were unloved forever and anon. Suddenly, love looked you in the eye, and yet the presenter of the love did not declare love, just issued it, just emanated it, just came from a place of love angled like sunlight through a window. And yet this sunlight stayed steady. It was always there. You knew it was there. It did not say, “Look, I love you.” But the love was there, and you knew it, and it was love for you. At last, love for you, love to cherish. Love furrowed its way into your heart and was there to stay. Love made itself known to your trembling heart.

What is breathless about discovering that you are loved is that you see that you are actually capable of being loved AND, most wonderful of all, you discover that you are actually capable of loving as well. One great reason why knowing you are loved is a very good thing is because then you begin to find love stirring in your own heart. There is a thump in your heart that says, “Hey, I can love.”

Love has become reciprocal. Love feeds on itself and grows. Before you know it, you will enter the arena of loving first. Just think of it, to be able to initiate love from your heart to another’s or to all seeming others. Just think of it, to be one who loves, who splurges on love, who comes to know the gracious Indweller of love in your heart. And the love in your heart rays out. The special love directed to and from an individual grows into universal love, and suddenly you are a lover of the Universe. You are a practitioner of love. You have thought you are new to it. Your heart becomes a badge of love, shining in the day and shining in the night. Your badge was polished all the time, even when you didn’t see it.

“Love is mine,” you say now. And then you fling love out as you would fling orange blossoms at a wedding or confetti from a great height on New Year’s Eve. You begin to toss love, and it doesn’t matter where it lands. It matters that you give it. It is the giving love out that matters. Suddenly, you have love to spare.

Hearts like beggars cry out: “Can you spare me a dime?”

And your heart says, “Yes, here, this is for you. Here you are.” And you give dimes of love and diamonds of love and, before you know it, the world is sparkling with love, all because one simple human being loved another.

Dimes of love and diamonds of love

God is a poet! Wordplay naturally flows though "God's typewriter." Dimes lead to diamonds, and, before you know it, the Heavenletter is sparkling with love and elegance.

Happy holidays to all!

Appreciatively,
Tracey

Tracey rings the Bells of Joy!

Tracey I wish I had said exactly what you wrote! Oh so beautiful, your word!

SOMETIMES LOVE IS OBLIQUE

Dear MAESTRO, This Loving Letter of yours, of course, is not oblique, it is quite forthright and direct, no beating around the proverbial
bush. My favorite line here is, "and suddenly your heart is dancing across the stars!"...just because I or any of us has come to the
realization that "I am worth LOVING!!" Then suddenly the hidden love-song in my heart wants to be sung to the stars and to
anyone who might be around to hear it. Love is so transformational !! It's only when we realize that we are loved and lovable
that Life becomes a song that's worth dancing to. We suddenly feel like a gifted ballerina who knows that dancing across the stars is
the most exhilarating song and dance there is.

Thank you, GRACIOUS INDWELLER OF LOVE IN MY HEART and in All Hearts, for sharing The Sunlit Diamond of EverlastingLove with
us. Your created my heart out of Your Everlasting DIAMOND CLEAR AWARENESS. We are privileged Beings of Love, indeed.

Mary Moon, I so enjoyed

Mary Moon, I so enjoyed reading your words that emanate the Love of our Gracious Indweller.

As an echo, I would like to highlight;

It's only when we realize that we are loved and lovable
that Life becomes a song that's worth dancing to.

which is the most meaningful to me.

MUCH LOVE and BLESSINGS of LIGHT!
Johanne

Johanne's words are an invitation to dance!

Please dearest ones may I dance love's dance with Mary and Johanne? The sweet music of LIFE invites us to the floor of always to dance to the music of everything.

Oh, such Joy!

George

like sunlight through a window

Love came to you when you were not looking. Suddenly, there was love.

Okay, suddenly. But can we speak about what leads up to it? Is there anything leading up to it? Something I do? Something You do? Something time does or nature? Is my not looking that which brings it about? The hunch I'm having says no.

Wenn I simply wake up to the fact, that means I have been sleeping and whatever I did or did not in my sleep must have been dream. It has always been the deepest conundrum to me that what must be the most obvious – God, love, oneness – isn't seen. But when this is dream, it's quite clear why the real, the obvious, isn't seen. It's also clear that everything I'm attempting to wake up is also dream.

So, therefore, love comes suddenly, unforseen. It's got nothing to do with me, this thinking, planning, calculating self, and yet I'm somehow involved. Highly mysterious.

(((Jochen))) Love's name!

Dearest Jochen it is such a JOY to listen to LOVE talk such wonderful riddles.

You are love playing dodge ball in Life's play ground. I love you

George

Love is His divine Name! Ours too.

It sounds discordant to say that you can't dance love as a dance.
You can't play love as some sort of game.
You can't become what you are at birth.
You are love in all its many forms.
At times we pull down the shades and hide the light of love.
As we wake up and pull up the shade we discover our very Being is Love.
Walking in life is walking in love. Just smile into a lonely heart and see.
The darling scribes of Heaven Letters use love as the substance of their words.
Read the love and it will make you more of what you already are.
Love smells like Joy.

a formula for happiness

Pay attention to those things that make you happy. It is not the thing or event, of course, that makes you happy. There is something about it that brings out happiness from you. No matter how diverse the occurrences that give you joy may be, they share something in common. Discover what this is, and you have a formula for happiness.
I think you could make a long list, perhaps an infinite list. What gives you even the tiniest bit of happiness? Never mind what does not. What does. HL
Consider that your pen keeps writing. It keeps moving forward, and yet it is your hand moving the pen that touches the paper. But it is truly your heart and mind that write. Your heart and mind tell the pen what marks to make on the paper.
Consider your life a scroll. The scroll of your life fell from Heaven. You hold on to this scroll of you, and as you read and write, your handwriting rises back to its origin. Actually, in truth, you write from on high. You always write at the top of the scroll, do you see? You just have turned yourself around for a moment and forgotten your place. HL

To know you are loved is Divine...

Yes....When you really know that you are loved, it makes a tremendous difference in your life...to put it mildly. So I will tell you what happened to me so that you will know that what i say is not just theory or another "new age" carrot. Several months ago, for some reason, I just knew...absolutely knew that God loved me! And from then on life got really good...and it was good already...but some small aspects of me including fear just dissolved, along with hurry and worry. And then, just recently, someone truly expressed their love for me...so sweet...God expressing his/her love for me through another beautiful being. Does life get any better? Yes...it does and it will!!!!! Loving you all. Jim and Jimi

Dearest Jim and Jim, of

Dearest Jim and Jim,
of course you are truly loved, how could anyone not love you ? thank you for sharing your beautiful heart and amazing experience with us.... you are a blessing for all who are ready to hear and see and feel you.
Loving you always.
Berit

Jim Keller ate the whole carrot!

Jim and Jimmi:

To put a touch of Joy to your words of Life I'd say that Life told me long before several months ago that God loved you with all His precious Heart. it's obvious the way you express love with your life. Way to go! Merry everything and Happy all sorts of things.

George

One day you discover that

"Sometimes love is oblique"

I tried to walk and sit and look "oblique" throughout the day before saying, without a doubt, that "obliquity" is uncomfortable, thus it is not for me. There must be some case where love is straight.

Emilia our darling makes us smile big!

When we look at your heart we see what "straight" love looks like, tastes like, smells like, and acts like. You're a straight shooter and your bullets are love.

George

straight

George, you are a souls connoisseur. Usually, when love shoots straight almost everyone I know run away.

Emilia our darling makes us smile big!

When they run away, you precious Emilia, stay and play. I love you

George
