Here are three ways to search through the history of over 5,000 Loving Each Day quotes by John-Roger and John Morton.
For you are the cause of all, and you are also the effect of all. But, you must know it -- that you are the cause, and you are the effect. For ye are gods, ye are creators in the making. So create wisely. We are held responsible for our creations.
Look deeply within for your experience of what is of deepest meaning and truth for you in this situation. Look for your living truth that is what you need to experience and express. Look for what aligns with your truth and what does not align. Be more willing to be true to yourself however that works for you. Be careful that you don't attempt to assign truth that is not yours to direct. It can look like feeling responsible for others or things and situations that are not your level of concern and not for you to direct nor express. The truth that is yours will be right here, right now, fully available and clear to express.
When Jesus said that one must be childlike to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, I think he was saying that a person must be loving and innocent and open -- which are qualities of children. Often when I look into children's eyes and into their consciousness, one of the first things I see there is trust.
Have you ever smelled perfume from a flower? That's similar to how the Spirit moves. That flower was really nearby in order for you to smell it. And if you turned toward that essence of perfume and started tracing it back, you came to the source it was coming from. But you must pursue it in order to get to the source. If the perfume seems to float interminably through the air, you have more of a job. You have to be more alert, more aware, more watchful than before. And it could be that you smelled it for so long, you've lost track that it's present. But someone new coming in will say, "That sure smells like roses," to once again refresh your mind of what you know. And that's what I'm here for: to once again refresh your mind of what you know. You already knew all this, and you didn't deal with it, and it's okay if you don't deal with it now. But my job is to tell you, and that's what I'm doing.
Indifference kills the spirit inside. Indifference is on the opposite side of love and hate. And although the spirit can't really be killed, I'm trying to get across to you the serious impact indifference can have on your health and well-being. When we place negativity on our expression deep inside of us, called restraint, fear, restlessness, and indecision, the result is indifference. What is the cure for indifference? Gentleness. The most powerful people on the planet are the most gentle because gentle people are strong, or they could not be gentle. Their egos are balanced, their thinking is balanced, they have a sureness about them, a natural confidence. They have been tried in the fires of negativity, and they have come out purified.
Human beings are an extension of God and, as such, they have certain attributes in common with God. One is the power of creation. Part of our experience on the physical plane is to become a consciously aware and responsible creator and to create those things which are positive in nature. We create by our emotions, thoughts, words, and actions. We can create misery, hurt, fear, revenge, etc., or we can create happiness, harmony, confidence, peace, and joy. And each of us makes these choices many times each day.
Have you ever set a goal for yourself, only to find yourself falling short of it? Maybe you have come very close but haven't reached into the success of completion. Use the theater of the mind to envision your success -- your accomplishment, completion, achievement. If you create this vision strongly enough, it will happen for you. Even when a part of you seems to give up -- consciously or otherwise -- there is another part that will hold the vision. Then, perhaps when you least expect it, you will "suddenly" have accomplished your goal.
Remember, your Soul, who you truly are, is not your body. As with every Soul, you are destined to leave the body. Consider shifting your awareness and view to the spiritual domain while you love and care for the body, doing what you can sensibly to assist with healing, and focusing on your growth and learning in your process. If you attempt to control anything in the physical world, including your body, you are likely to come up short and judge yourself as inadequate. This is all part of your opportunity to let go and let God which translates to be open and trust that greater good is what is to become.
Inspiration comes from a level deeper than thought. It comes when you are quiet: when the mind is holding steady, the emotions are calm, and the body is in balance. Then the Soul comes forward with its joyfulness. When it does, the imagination comes with it. As the mind lets loose, you may doubt yourself and wonder if you're deluding yourself. It's important to train yourself to recognize the difference between your wishful thinking and the inspiration that comes from your divine nature and intuitive knowing. To do this takes practice and learning to trust yourself.
Love yourself first, then love your neighbor as yourself. So the loving begins inside of you. Fill yourself with it and then let the overflow go to the neighbor. That way you'll always be able to serve. It's not a ritual. It's an energy field. And we often have to present our bodies there as a conductor of the energy.
