The Secret (Missing) Ingredient

There is an essential ingredient to acquiring our heart's desire. It is often overlooked as we make our plans for attracting riches into our lives. It is so simple, yet critical that it be included in our vibration when summoning up our next great manifestation. And it is: LOVE.

Consider this passage from Emmet Fox:

"There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
No disease that enough love will not heal;
No door that enough love will not open;
No gulf that enough love will not bridge;
No wall that enough love will not throw down;
No sin that enough love will not redeem. . .
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble, how hopeless the outlook, how muddled the tangle, how great the mistake-a sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. . . if only you could love enough, you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world."

Food for thought, eh? And, certainly truer words were never spoken. But how do we love enough? How do we summon up this quality at will? The answer lies in simplicity itself. We are love. It's the stuff we are made of. Our only job is to get out of its way and allow it to come in. It's so empowering to know we have total access to the only answer we'll ever need!

So the practice of this principle only gets difficult when the opposite of love is strong. (ie fear, hate, anger or resentment) It is then that we need to step aside and let our inner love flow out. It can be a challenge when we are agitated. Here is an exercise to try: Imagine a shelf in your kitchen. Imagine placing your anger on that shelf. You can come back and get it later, if you want, but for right now it's on the shelf. And then sit down at your imaginary kitchen table and let loving thoughts come forth. You can just repeat the word: Love. This is an excellent spiritual treatment. Try it out and let me know how it works!

Another that works well is to just repeat the word, "Love" over and over. Close your eyes and really feel that presence of love as you repeat this word. Amazing, eh?

So give these a try to bring love's energies into your life. Because all you need is love. And you have all you need.
