A beautiful quote; one that I have found to be true:

“For thirty years I went in search of God, and when I opened my eyes at the
end of this time, I discovered that it was really He who sought for me.” – Bayazid Al-Bistami

God seeks after all of us, but will never pressure us.  So great is God’s love for us that God is willing to be rejected over and over and over by the one that God loves most … you.

Try putting that level of love into the human world … it doesn’t even exist.  Someone breaks your heart to the deepest levels you know … do you keep going back for more; over and over?  Simply because your love for them is that pure, and strong, and deep?

That is the love of God for each of us … and when we finally see … when we finally turn to face and embrace God?  Likewise the bliss that ensues is also beyond our comprehension … me we live in that intoxicated state of bliss; one with God.

Religion4All is an idea: that every human being (no matter their race, religion, sexuality, social status, lifestyle, or any other possible factor) is LOVED by God; just … as … they are.

We all are loved by God, and NO religion or person has a monopoly on it. Every single person on this planet is loved equally by God … SO many are cut off from God because they are told they don’t belong. God loves everyone … we ALL are beautiful creations … we don’t need to cringe when we hear the words “God”, or “religion”, or their judgments … God LOVES us all!

There is no requirement to change in order to be LOVED by God, or to LOVE God. God is LOVE, and LOVE is God … period. There is no one who God loves more than anyone else … there are only those who choose to LOVE more … to love God more, and consequently then to love each other more. In doing so, we grow closer to God … and know God.

By opening our hearts, and minds to God (free of boundaries like religion, or social trends); by LOVING God … we are exactly where we are meant to be. If we maintain that openness, never allowing any person or event to make us close our hearts, we will be guided by God to be who we are meant to be.

In that space of openness we can then live a life of LOVE, and be guided to where we are meant to be … forever in LOVE.
