Love is the whole story. Love tells all. Love gives all. Love is a marvelous ending and a truthful beginning. There is no place love is not welcome. To be a part of the story of love, you must be able to love, to give love and to receive love. Both of these qualities are very important. For to give love, you must understand what love is and how it feels to receive it. To receive love, you must be able to understand what it is to give it. Thus, they are linked together and so it is that when you are giving love, you may find that at the same time you are receiving it. Love comes through you and as it is given, it is also passes through your heart.
When you receive love, the common response is to return it, to give love back, and that is good. Thus, giving and receiving love are two sides of a coin, they are inextricably connected, and one leads to the other which completes the circle.
Loving is not complicated. It is simple. It is an opening. It is a letting go of expectations, of certain standards, of certain forms, of certain values and beliefs. It is a letting go of all but love and trusting love to be the right thing. Love is always the correct response. Love is always full and true. Love is letting your true self emerge and feeling control slip through your fingers. You are not in control, love is. Whenever you try to take control, fear and worry and chaos step in. You are not in control. That is all right. Let it go.
How could you possibly be in control of all that you wish to be? It is a physical impossibility. There are too many factors to contend with. Factors you may know nothing about which may influence your very life, factors which are unknowable by you. Only the Divine can see and understand all the factors.
Only Divine love can hold it all together. Let go and let love be in charge. Let love control your life. When there is a crisis or a decision to be made, let love make the decision for you. Let love lead you to the Light. Let love lead you away from worry, sadness pain and chaos. These do not belong to love. Let love open your heart and chase the sorrow out. It is possible. It is true. Your life can be changed in an instant. In fact, it can only change an instant at a time.
Let love carry you from this instant to the next and you will be changed. The love you carry, the love you give away, this is all you really have to call your own. The rest is illusion, the rest is temporary. Let love carry you, let it unlock your heart and lead you home. Let love tell your story.
