You cannot know Me and walk in My ways and do My will if you do not love Me; and you cannot love Me unless you love one another. Many souls talk about their love for Me, and yet they do not know what it means to love themselves and to love their fellow human beings. The key is always love, and the most important lesson to learn is to love. You have to learn to love what you are doing, to love those souls you are with, to love your surroundings, to love where you live, to love the very air you breathe, the very ground you walk upon. Love everything you set your eyes upon. Liking something is not enough; you have to love it and love it whole-heartedly. It is good every now and again to take stock of yourself and see how much love there is in you. Take your everyday living and see how much love you are putting into everything you do, say and think.
我無法懂得上天,行在上天的道上,實現上天的意願,如果我不愛上天;而我無法愛上天,如果我們不愛彼此。很多靈魂談論他們對上天的愛,然而他們並不知曉愛他們自己以及愛他們的同伴的意義。關鍵就是總是去愛,最重要的課題就是學習去愛。
我需要學習熱愛我所從事的工作,愛與我一起的靈魂們,愛我周遭的一切,愛我居住的地方,愛我吸入吐出的空氣,愛我在上行走的土地。愛我眼中所看見的一切。
喜歡某件事情是不夠的;我需要去愛它,全心全意地愛它。反複去估量我自己,看看在我的內在有多少愛,總是好的。看看在每一天的生活中,我付諸多少愛在我所做、所言、所思之中。
