I had previously shared information from a Message titled, “From the image into the substance” published in, The Gospel of God’s Love. It was delivered from Jesus and received by James Padgett on June 27, 1916. I created 3 Blogs from that wonderful message in September 2010; since that was 2 years ago, and I don’t have a good memory (I’m 81, and may have early stages of dementia.), I started sharing it again yesterday.
Instead of deleting those 2 Blogs, I’m pretending readers, sincere seekers of spiritual truths, might find them enlightening and helpful in their efforts to progress. It seems that these Blogs, being in a long line of 28o or so, may be difficult to find. I hope readers who recognize the value of these spiritual truths will decide to purchase the book, The Gospel of God’s Love, available through Amazon,com.
A valuable lesson, for all humankind, is to recognize the importance of learning to love ourselves. We cannot love others more than we love ourselves. And one of the large roadblocks, which interfers with people learning this, is that oftentimes they do not even realize that they have very little self-love. I believe that sometimes people become puffed-up with their own importance, and interpret that as self-love.
It is difficult to learn how to develop the highest potential of our souls. (Especially for those who do not even believe they have a soul – or that they Are souls). But if you become weary enough of struggling in the material world, and are looking for a better way, you could benefit from asking a Higher Power to bestow a Higher Love upon you.
So, did I hear someone say, I’ve tried prayer and that doesn’t work for me? I’ve said that before, but it was because I gave up too easily. I believe in the rule that states; “Try and try again (and again) until it works for you.” The angels tell us to pray, And have Faith, that our prayers will be answered. It sometimes might be the “faith part” which the seeker is failing to activate.
I’m beginning to recognize some changes in my attitude. I don’t need to be concerned about what others say or think, that’s my job. If I’m doing my best “to do all things with great love,” God will do the rest. And S/He always does everything with Love. The reason people don’t always agree that “God Is Love” is because they haven’t prayed long enough yet. Amen
