The Path of Love
By Lucile Olson
There are many paths that lead to the mountain top, but the shortest and easiest one is the path of love. We can set an intention to find this path in the days to come.
We are surrounded by Divine Love. The “Prayer for Protection” tell us, “The light of God surrounds us, the love of God enfolds us”. To find that love we only need to become aware of it, to seek it, and to feel it in our heart. Our own heart is the laboratory where we develop our love muscle that will power us forward on the path of love.
Our judgments keep us blind to the love that is always available. We can consciously resolve to stop judging. Replace our judgments with an effort to see others as fellow travelers on their own path, each one growing and learning at their own pace and in their own chosen way. Allowing others to be who they are and where they are on their own path, frees us to focus on our own path and our own heart.
Begin to feel that Divine Love that surrounds and enfolds us within your heart. See it in your own eyes as you look in the mirror. Share it with others through loving, encouraging thoughts and words. As we develop our ability to respond with love, we are contributing to humanity and to a more loving and peaceful world. As we rise to a higher elevation on our path of love, we may begin to see things more clearly.
