This is what my soul is telling me: be peaceful and love everyone.

And I will ask the Father, and He shall give you another Paraclete, seeing He saith this of the Holy Spirit, Whom except we have, we can neither love God, nor keep His commandments?

Love is the queen of all the Christain graces.

But yet it is evident that religion consists so much in affection, as that without holy affection there is no true religion; and no light in the understanding is good which does not produce holy affection in the heart: no habit or principle in the heart is good which has no such exercise; and no external fruit is good which does not proceed from such exercises.

If virtue promises happiness, prosperity and peace, then progress in virtue is progress in each of these for to whatever point the perfection of anything brings us, progress is always an approach toward it.

What I am talking about is beyond speaking in tongues.Yes, I did speak in a heavenly language, but it was much more than that.The Holy Spirit became real. He became my friend. He became my companion, my counselor.

The gracious, eternal God permits the spirit to green and bloom and to bring forth the most marvelous fruit, surpassing anything a tongue can express and a heart conceive.

You can only give away what you have inside. Become an instrument of love, invite love to accompany you 24/7. Give away love, and it has to come streaming into your life.

Peace and love are ever in us, being and working; but we be not alway in peace and in love.

You know my God. My God is called love

Joy is the happiness of love - love aware of its own inner happiness. Pleasure comes from without, and joy comes from within, and it is, therefore, within reach of everyone in the world.

God would first, by this inspiration of his Spirit, have wrought in our hearts that holy love without which none can enter into glory.
