I was reminded of this on Saturday in an association address on this very topic. There could not have been a more un-grim day. In fact, a long-time acquaintance who usually is very glum and dour greeted me with all smiles. <br /><br />As to the being "aflame," I had been treating a case of chronic inflammation and realized that if one is "aflame with divine Love" one can't be "inflamed" with fear or caution.

"Divine Love reforms, regenerates, giving to human weakness strength, serving as admonition, instruction, and governing all that really is. Divine Love is the noumenon and phenomenon, the Principle and practice of divine metaphysics. Love talked and not lived is a poor shift for the weak and worldly. Love lived in a court or cot is God exemplified, governing governments, industries, human rights, liberty, life. In love for man we gain the only and true sense of love for God, practical good, and so rise and still rise to His image and likeness, and are made partakers of that Mind whence springs the universe."<br />A lot in this, which is from "First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany," page 287.A Portland CSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4605042465598890784.post-61518733707561034662010-06-27T02:55:04.418-07:002010-06-27T02:55:04.418-07:00"Malignant stock of a Christless disposition&..."Malignant stock of a Christless disposition" -- love the fresh/bold way you say what you have to say! <br />Good job, ChristianCambridgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4605042465598890784.post-59835737676221228122010-06-26T14:27:27.291-07:002010-06-26T14:27:27.291-07:00Thank you for being the blessing you are.
