As students of life, we seek relief from suffering and growth of happiness. Deeply considering uplifting ideas raises our consciousness from the realm of the material problem into the powerful and harmonious realm of the spiritual. It is what a dedicated spiritual practice is all about. We give up our ideas, hurts, fears, and grudges and concede to the Greater. We expand, and we heal. It becomes apparent that it would be impossible to feel alone as we are intimately connected to a thriving life force. It is everything, yet it is nothing. It grows silently and steadily. We are already it, and It is already us. We continue to go forward with our spiritual practices, and these practices increasingly envelop us in loveliness. We come out the other side as transparent beings, nameless but with the mark of God.
Love and Devotion is a four-book nonfiction series. A grand and magnificent truth radiates from within all of life and each of us. May you discover in your heart a sweet lightness, the luminescent glow of God's beauty, and a genuine appreciation for the wonderful gift of life which glows unmarred through every human error. We are loved by the Divine, loved into existence. That, in itself, is enough to reassure each one of us of our inestimable worth.
