Seeking Someone.....

A friend gave this to me which I find so dear.....what a precious gift God has in store for us :)

A Thought For You

            Everyone longs to give themselves completely to be someone – to have a deep, soul relationship with another – to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But God to a Christian says, “No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved by Me alone – to having an intense, personal, and unique relationship with Me alone. Discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction found, will you be capable of the perfect human relationship that I have planned for you. You will never be united with another until you are united with Me – exclusive of anyone or anything else, exclusive of any other desires or longings. I want to you stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing – one that you cannot imagine. I want you to have the BEST! Please allow me to bring it to you. You just keep watching Me, expecting the great things – keep experiencing, the satisfaction that I am, keep listening and learning the things I tell you. You just wait, that’s all.”

            “Don’t be anxious. Don’t worry. Don’t look around at the things others have gotten or that I’ve given them. Don’t look at the things you think you want. You just keep looking off and away up to Me, or you’ll miss what I want to show you.”

            “And then, when you are ready, I’ll surprise you with a love far more wonderful than any you would dream of. You see, until you are ready, and until the one I have for you is ready, until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life I prepared for you, you won’t be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with Me, and is thus the perfect love.”

            “And dear one, I want you to have the most wonderful love. I want you to see in the flesh a picture of your everlasting union of beauty, perfection, and love that I offer you with Myself, know that I love you utterly, believe it, and be satisfied.”

"God is love" ---- think about it; it's mind-blowing :)

"Human affection is not poured forth vainly, even though it meet no return. Love enriches the nature, enlarging, purifying, and elevating it." -Science and Health pg. 57:22-24

What I've come to realize with this idea is that when we love, we're blessing the entire world with that love. Even though it sometimes seems to "meet no return," through our unselfed love, we're contributing to the WORLD'S love quota, thereby helping more people than we can possibly imagine. Talk about the ripple effect! We cannot even fathom how much good our love is doing & we cannot be punished in any way for that love. Going along with this, Mrs. Eddy also says:

"Giving does not impoverish us in the service of our Maker, neither does withholding enrich us." (Science and Health pg 79:31) 

What better way to serve our Maker than to LOVE!

Hymn #115 (Christian Science Hymnal)

Holy Father, Thou has taught us
We should live to Thee alone;
Year by year, Thy hand hath brought us
On through dangers oft unknown.
When we wandered, Though has found us;
When we doubted, sent us light;
Still Thine arm has been around us,
All our paths were in Thy sight.

We would trust in Thy protecting,
Wholly rest upon Thine arm,
Follow wholly Thy directing,
Thou our only guard from harm.
Keep us from our own undoing,
Help us turn to Thee when tried,
Still our strength in Thee renewing,
Keep us ever at Thy side.
