Imagine saying to yourself every morning before starting your day, and every evening before going to sleep:
The great love which I now feel for the world is the Love of God, and it is felt by all and comes back to me from all. I understand all people and this understanding is reflected to me from all. I give friendship and therefore I have friends. I help; therefore, I am helped. I uplift; therefore, I am uplifted. I am now surrounded by all love, all friendship, all companionship, all health, all happiness, all success. I am one with life.
These words of affirmation, from our founder, Ernest Holmes, have a beautiful effect when used frequently, not because there is any special power in the words, but because at the heart of the meaning of the words is a universal message of camaraderie, love, and connection.
What are more ways in which you can express love in the world?
Warm regards
