Feeling God's love

Geoffrey J. Barratt

Christian Science, strongly asserting the power of Love, insists that the problems of mankind are not to be ignored but to be healed. That is its aim because it is Christian—an aim that can be achieved because it is Science.

What makes the difference between knowing about God's love and actually experiencing or proving it? Thinking and living based on divine Love—including Love's expression, man—as all-presence. Knowing that our selfhood, never parted from Love, is not a mortal entity waiting for some kind of immortal blessing. Spiritually seen, each of us even now represents the purity and purpose of unfailing Love.

Our love for divine Love, God, is more than just reciprocated. God divinely loves us more than we could ever love Him humanly. His love is endless, boundless, and unwavering. Human love, until it makes full place for the presence of divine Love, is relatively small—even at its largest.
