The Law of Love

(April 14th Journal Excerpt)

...and the concept of a God that loves each of us so specifically, every little thing!

Sometimes I struggle a little because I can't fathom Him. That's also what keeps me coming back. there is nothing else like this, and it doesn't make any sense, but I know it. It's a reality in my life I can't deny. It's a paradox: I don't get Him, but I can't stop trying.

It just sort of rocked me extra hard today: a God that loves. All other gods and religion are for achieving peace or good karma, or upgrade in yet another life. None involve an omnipotent deity that loves; that humbled Himself to our level, not to judge upon himself to wipe our slate(s). But they all still acknowledge good and bad; or evil.

I love that I know that is reflected in me; that love God has for each individual just smacks me in the chest sometimes, knocks the wind out of me usually. A reflection that my nature tries to overshadow, and veil.

So even though I can't comprehend it fully, I know it. It's not unlike the concept of gravity; no, sorry - the law! it's like the law of gravity: we know it exists, and based on the fact that we don't float away to the moon we each personally know it, but it's a little hard to comprehend. So is the law of love.

And what a beautiful law!
