Today, Tuesday, April 05, is the twenty-fourth day of Lent. Lent is the period of time during which we can prepare ourselves for the Easter experience.
 
 
Assignment 24
 
Let us remember that it is through our bodies, through this human self, that we truly feel and know God. We feel this Life Presence as our breath, as the beat of our heart, as the faith that moves us with great power to all fulfillment. We go forward, fired with enthusiasm and interest, moved by the buoyancy and resilience of Spirit willing us forward.
 
We are warm and content by an inner flame of love that lifts the shade from the eyes of the soul and lets it glimpse in the loved one the perfection of God. This is why love has been called blind. Love does not see faults or shortcomings. It is not based on beauty of form. Love sees only the perfection of the within, which glows for the one who loves. Love is God’s healing power in the body of man.
 
Love is the greatest power moving through the body. It is the revelation of the perfection of God in man, which is seen clearly through the eyes of love. It is the power that carries man through the darkest night, the longest day or his supreme challenge. It is love of something that gives him all power. It may be love of country, or all humankind, for honor, for family or for one alone. It may be love of an idea, or of self – for we must love self if we are to truly love God!
 
Love is proof supreme of our Oneness with the Power of the Universe, for with love there is no separation! Not time or space or failure or misunderstanding can dim the strength and power of love. Love can release all outer achievement or gain, for love lives on – Love is God! Lack of health is separation.
 
Let us relax and remember and feel love, love of today or yesterday, love that streams through every cell of the body with a clear and crystal light that renews and recreates us. Feel the greatest love that has ever touched your mind and heart, for if it has ever touched you, it is still with you. No matter if the outer mind would convince you that some love is not good. All love is good and given directly from God. We may not direct love well or even share it at all because of our ignorance and fear, but Love is God in Action! Love is life – I feel love for something or someone with my whole being – And I feel God!
