The Importance of Loving Oneself

[Serena Duvet]

A Love Affair with Self                 

Love the Presence of God within you, your Spirit, with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.

When you Contemplate that Presence within you, your very Spirit, with great love, that one-pointed love-focus will literally draw the awesome and incredible power of the universe right into your thinking mind and feeling nature. You take on the Power and you become the Power and you speak as the Power—and behold—all things are made new!

Jesus called this the first and greatest of all the commandments because of the effect of this activity on consciousness, and if there ever was a “magic formula” for turning our personal worlds right-side up, this is it. Mediating on your Presence with all the love you can feel in your entire being changes the vibration of your energy field and moves you to a higher frequency faster than anything I can think of. And in the process, you are disconnected from the race consciousness, and false beliefs and error patterns are burned away by the fire of the Living Christ.

But this is not something you do once or twice a day. The secret is to live that Love of the Presence . . . to glance within many times a day and express your adoration . . . to court your Holy Self with total interest and attention.

Find your point of contact, and begin the Love Affair this very day. That point may be the feeling of love in your heart, a Light seen with the inner eye, or perhaps an awareness in your mind of a higher Presence hovering in the background of your consciousness. Find that focal point—identify it as your connection with your Master Self—and pour all the love you can feel into it.

Do it now.
