Seeing Love is Seeing God

Picture
Our Sanctuary Forest Garden
Sometimes we forget to love ourselves. Sometimes I forget to love myself.  To be kind, gentle, compassionate and loving to self. I forget to see God in me, the Divine Love in me. I forget. Yet God never ever fails to send love notes, messages every moment... but I can miss God's love messages right before me, my eyes, and in my inner soul. Only when I quieten myself down, turning inward, listening within... in the silence, in the forest, in the songs of birds in my Sanctuary Forest Garden, I drop into my inner soul, inner song, inner beauty, inner castle... of the very depth of my heart and soul, I 'see' love in me again, I 'see' God in me again, in my beautiful inner soul. God and I are one. In union again. Not by my effort nor by my intellectual, but by the grace of God bestowed upon me.

God dwells in every minute of our life -whether in sorrow, in pain, in depression, in joy, in love, in happiness, in silence, in the busyness... … God is always in us. In the songs of birds, in the wind, in the rain, in the rustling of the dancing trees, in the fragrance of the flowers, in a message of a friend, in the words of a book... God sends us love notes and messages... simply just to say...'Come my love, I love you.' I love how James Finley in the 'Interior Castle' online course articulated, 'Come my love, let me give you a hug' says God, when we enter into the soul of our very heart and to our beloved God.

I sat in silence in the course a while ago in contemplation. I am inspired to write this. I am blogging again after a long period of silence and process. Now I return to share with you my journey again, now living in our Sanctuary Forest Garden for a month and 5 days, living semi-monastic life in a contemporary way, serving my beautiful soulmate, Jeroen, as a wife, as a friend, as a companion, as a soulmate.

When we see God in us, we see God in everything.
We see love in us, we see love in everything.
God is love. Love is God.


What love note or message is God sending you today?
Through a friend? Through a book? Through a bird?
Are you aware?

Can you receive the love note of God to you?

Let the love embrace you, may you rekindle, reignite by God, by love in You, by the little love note God is sending you when you forget.

I bless you my reader, my friend who read this.
May you always dwell within your soul with your beloved God, in love with God, in love with Self.

Much love, blessings and hug,
Elizabeth

What a beautiful message. I do believe we get these messages and I know for sure we miss a lot during our busy lives.
I'll work to be more mindful. In fact next week I'm retreating to the most beautiful and silent spot I have found for a few days. I hope to find more notes from God there.

    Shalom! Peace-FuLL! Bless-FuLL ! Love-FuLL To you!

    I am Elizabeth, and also known as Angel Rose.  My Chinese name is
    黃 秀 珠.

    Ever since I come home to my true self,  I dare to step out and dance in the heart and garden of love.
    ​
    My desire to post here is to have courage to show up as who I am and in return to inspire each beautiful soul on earth to live life as who he/she is.  I am a seeker so I encourage you to be and continue to be a seeker.  Life is inevitable with ups and downs, challenges along our human journey.  However when we make time to insure the growth of our inner garden - our heart with  self-care, nourishment, growth, healing, play, creativity, silence and loving ourselves unconditionally, we can live life to the fullest with peace, bliss, contentment and gratitude, and  we can go forth to serve others in true joy and love.  I share here my journey with you as well as the ordinary moments I witness, experience and encounter in my daily life.  Let us journey together.  Let our journey begins.  let each of our unique soul's story unfolds like a rose opens her petals, revealing her heart.
