“Child of the wind and the sun, delight of my heart! Remember now that the being that you really are is what every truth-seeker has been looking for and that for which every lover yearning for eternal love longed. The desired unity was union with your being, a union between you and me in which we both merge into an ‘us’ that extends the reality of love.” Choose Only Love, bk.7, 1:I. Message from Jesus.
By the time we reach Book VII of Choose Only Love, we are assured that we have moved into being and its eternity, no longer egos, no longer longing for Awakening–for it is happening even as we speak. We are encouraged to join with Jesus, something that traditional Christianity also champions with its emphasis on a personal relationship with Christ. But now we learn that ALL of us are Christ, or becoming so, and this term is no longer identified just with Jesus, who is our leader.
What we are about is the extension of love. It is all we are about. There is not other purpose in living, no other purpose for us to have been born on Earth in this era. We live in an eternity that unfolds with great beneficence for us. There is a good quotation from Eastern religion: “You live in an eternity. Be happy now.”
That is just what we need to encourage, in ourselves and others. Love creates happiness/joy. Love is truly all we need.
