Monday: Authentic love is neither self-generated nor born of our human willfulness. Love Is God. Therefore, the capacity to love always flows from God.
Tuesday: While the experience of love is often accompanied with great joy, love is much more than an emotion. Love is the evolutionary energy of God working within creation to bring about our highest good.
Wednesday: All forms of love begin with the willingness to consciously recognize others as real people with real hopes, needs, joy, and pain. We must make others as real to us as we are to ourselves.
Thursday: Self-love is one of the most misunderstood concepts in contemporary culture. Far too often self-love has been reduced to infatuation with the personality or self-image.This kind of self-love requires an endless stream of praise, stroking, and sweet talk from self and others, and it never really works because it is not self-love at all.
Friday: Only love can create miracles. If we want miracles in our lives, we must live as if our lives are a perpetual wedding celebration which overflows with love, passion, commitment, and faith.
