God is within you
Seek his love within your heart in silence
In this divine silence, the gates of heaven open
Enter through the narrow gate in your own soul where the divine therapy takes place
Always remember
Christ is already within you
Waiting patiently for you to surrender your heart to him so he may give you a peace and joy in your soul that this world can never give
When we follow Christ within our own soul in pure love
We can experience complete unity with him
In this divine union, our small self dies and is awakened to God’s glory
We begin to see and experience Gods love in all creation
This love sets our soul on fire and Christ lives within us fully
We see that all creation is holy and seek not to harm any of God’s creation
May all experience this divine union at least for a moment so they see God’s love in all things
Bring true peace and joy to their inner most being
Oh lord
My heart is overflowing with your love
Your light is shining within me into the darkness of the world
Giving love to all those around me
It’s as if a river of flowing life has penetrated my inner most being
My soul is finally at peace
Your presence alone gives me great joy lord
May I be with you and remain in your love
The more fear, greed, and hatred that is in your heart
The less room there is for God’s love
We must empty our heart of all worldly attachments
Even ones that seem righteous and good
For God must possess the heart alone
God is beyond all thoughts
God is beyond all words
God is beyond all concepts
God is pure being beyond being
God can only be experienced through love
God can not be grasped by any thoughts or reason
The more we speak of God’s true nature
The more we speak lies
May we be silent to God’s true nature and rest in his love
Shining his light into the world
Lord
May we be rooted in your wisdom
May your love shine onto and within us
May you water us with your compassion and infinite mercy
May we bloom with your love and give beauty to this world
We are all flowers in God’s garden
Blooming at different times with his love
God’s love is shining within all things
We are just too blind to see it on a continuous basis
May we be touched by God’s love within our own heart
May our spiritual blindness be lifted so we can see God’s glory in all things
Filling our heart with true joy and peace
Why did God become man?
To restore to our true image
Which is of Gods image and likeness
He came down to love us and liberate us from the suffering of the world
To unite with us and live within us
When we follow Jesus within us with open heart our inner most being is satisfied
And our heart is of stone is transformed by God’s love into flesh
We experience perfect union with God and are transformed into Christ
In the darkness of my soul
There is a bright light
Shining its unconditional love into the darkness
My soul yearns for this light
My inner most desire to be fully united with it
In divine union
Rivers of joy, peace and love rush through my heart
“In the dark night of the soul, bright flows the river of God.”
Saint John of the Cross
“Now pay attention to this. God is nameless for no one can either speak of him or know him. Therefore a pagan master says that what we can know or say of the First Cause reflects ourselves more than it does the First Cause, for this transcends all speech and all understanding . . . He is being beyond being: he is a nothingness beyond being. Therefore St. Augustine says: ‘The finest thing that we can say of God is to be silent concerning him from the wisdom of inner riches.’ Be silent therefore, and do not chatter about God, for by chattering about him, you tell lies and commit a sin. If you wish to be perfect and without sin, then do not prattle about God. Also you should not wish to understand anything about God, for God is beyond all understanding. A master says: If I had a God that I could understand, I would not regard him as God. If you understand anything about him, then he is not in it, and by understanding something of him, you fall into ignorance, and by falling into ignorance, you become like an animal since the animal part in creatures is that which is unknowing. If you do not wish to become like an animal therefore, do not pretend that you understand anything of the ineffable God.”
