“All true love is from God, and man receives the divine affection as he himself bestows this love upon his fellows. Love is dynamic. It can never be captured; it is alive, free, thrilling, and always moving. Man can never take the love of the Father and imprison it within his heart. The Father’s love can become real to mortal man only by passing through that man’s personality as he in turn bestows this love upon his fellows.” (117:6.10)
Love originates from God and humans can experience divine love by expressing love towards others. This verse also tells us that love is not static, but rather dynamic and constantly in motion. The love of the Universal Father cannot be captured or contained, but it is alive, free, and thrilling. His love is not a passive emotion, but rather an active force that is constantly in motion, moving and flowing throughout the universe.
Humans can experience and share in this divine love by giving love to others. As individuals bestow love upon others, they receive divine affection from God. Again, love is not only a feeling but also an action. When we express love towards others, we become channels through which God’s love can flow and be experienced.
The experience of divine love is personal and unique to each individual. Each of us experience and express love differently, and it is through these unique expressions of love that the divine love of God can be made real to mortal man.
