Touched By an Angel

We, unaccustomed to courage exiles from delight live coiled in shells of loneliness until love leaves its high holy temple and comes into our sight to liberate us into life. Love arrives and in its train come ecstasies old memories of pleasure ancient histories of pain. Yet if we are bold, love strikes away the chains of fear from our souls. We are weaned from our timidity In the flush of love’s light we dare be brave And suddenly we see that love costs all we are and will ever be. Yet it is only love which sets us free. Written by Maya Angelou This has an extremely deep insight into the world of spirit…only the amount of love we give, unconditionally, can raise us from this slumber that most are completely unaware of. Practicing God [ pure love], giving god, is the trigger to recieving god and is the only way to overcome the fear that guides us. For now, we sleep, until the dawning of awareness that the source and the key have always been inside. The kingdom of Heaven is inside you, and all around you, but we see it not. If someone tells you the Kingdom of Heaven is in the sky…I say the birds will receive Heaven before you..if someone tells you the kingdom of Heaven is in the Ocean..I say the fishes will receive the Kingdom of Heaven before you…but when you come to understand that the Kingdom of Heaven is inside you and all around you…you have entered wisdom. [gospel of Thomas...sort of]
