Divine Love is an energy – intelligent, active, informed. At times, it spontaneously moves through my heart, flooding outwardly.
At these times of a Love flood, it no longer feels like a personal me who is giving love to someone. While the love floods and expands, it shows me that it’s going to people who are in trouble through the world. Some of these groups of people suffering are: grieving a loss, helpless, hopeless, experiencing pain, lonely, depressed, abused, starving, without a home and such. I can see the love moving outward from my heart, growing into a flood, directing itself. I can sense it’s power bringing healing to these people. Often, the Love flood goes out to animals and their struggles, or to Earth.
There’s no sense of a personal me doing this. I feel like a vessel that love is coming through and pouring out from. It’s not as though I had an intention to send love. It comes of its own volition. I believe I house it in my heart and that we all do. In this way it intelligently uses us when we make ourselves open and available to it. I try to remain open to this at all times.
Recently, I felt anger about something. As I sat in contemplation, I realized that the anger lived outside of me, yet it felt personal as though, “I am angry.” I know that I don’t naturally house anger. None of us do, even though we associate with it, telling ourselves it’s who we are.
When I feel a negative emotion come over me, it feels like it’s part of me – yet I know it isn’t. In fact, I realize that if I continue to feel the negative emotion of anger, I will become its channel. In that way, I will house its negative energy, feelings, stories, and justification for its presence.
At that moment, I realize I’ve lost love. And I can only house or channel one thing. Either I can be a channel for Love or I can be a channel for anger or other similar negative emotions. I immediately choose Love and hang on for dear life. I only want love in my life.
I consider ways I allow myself to be distracted from the most important thing in my life, to love. It may be someone rudely cutting me off in traffic, someone disappointing me or treating me unfairly. There’s a million zillion ways to be distracted.
Love has grown within me as my primary desire and life commitment. What I lose during the time of distraction and before returning to divine Love, I can never regain. What a tragedy!
I can’t afford to stay in the negative. Once I am aware of it, there’s only one thing to do. Surrender it. Go back to Love. Love will take care of the situation and even guide me through it.
I’ve found that by surrendering distractions (feelings that I choose not to define me and stories I choose not to live out), I can re-choose Love to partner. I can do this many times all day long.
I go back and forth a lot on days that I’m triggered. Maybe I hadn’t gotten enough sleep, was stressed, felt wronged, down, whatever. It doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is how soon I can return to being with divine Love. Why? So that everything and everyone I care about can receive Love’s monumental, healing goodness and benefit from it. I’ve learned that once I channel Love, It goes everywhere. There’s no stopping it.
I realize that I am a channel – just like you are. You and I can choose what to channel. I can choose Love, even interrupting a hissy fit to re-enact Love within me. I choose Love all day long as best I can.
The other choice is to allow negatives to be channeled through me – or you. These strong, aggressive energies can take over and define our hours, days, weeks, or even years. During those times of negative invasion, they can make me feel like I’m the one who’s angry and upset and I’m a victim of it. But really, it’s only the intrusion of negative energies which have nothing to do with me.
My intention is to stay with Love and watch out for intrusions and re-instate Love, even if it takes all day and night and forever. This is a life choice in every moment.
May divine Love fill your heart and spill out everywhere to those so in need of our love – including yourself.
