God Love – A Prayer to know
God’s Love, Joy and Peace
This page is dedicated to God Love.
What could be more important than to know God's love?
Do we not seek the love that surpasses knowledge?
And when we find it are we not
blessed and more of a blessing to others?
Gertrude the Great, God Love Prayer
"O Love, O God who created me, in your love recreate me.
O Love who redeemed me, fill up in me
whatever part of your love has fallen into neglect in me.
O Love , O God who first loved me, grant that with my whole heart
And with my whole strength, I may love you! Amen"
Gertrude the Great 1256-1302

Love Letter to God: Receiving God Love
A Prayer of Thanks For God's Love
Dear God,
I was so delighted and moved when you
said you loved me last night.
Even though
you have said it often to me I feel a richness
now which has somehow set me free to
open my very soul to you.
I have many faults I know.
But I am more willing now, because your love invites me to be inviting
instead of reserved.
Therefore I choose to inquire instead of turn away.
To give more, to open my heart rather than close my shield wall.
Instead of feeling messed up by my close encounters of the soul...
I choose to see it as coming through a mess...even to clear it all up... especially if it's `my mess`.
It has been Hell to find Heaven for me.
I have found beauty.
I am now made to lie in green pastures
by still waters.
I suppose I was the bravest, most courageous, `scared` warrior on the shield wall.
I walk out of that now.
I embrace totally your simply stated, yet universe-filled trust in me.
God, I love you.

"God is love.
Whoever lives in love
lives in God,
and God lives in him."
1 John 4:16, Bible quote about God love
Prayer to The Master
This is such a powerful prayer to know God love . I will let Robert speak. The emphasis is my own.
"The beautiful prayer below is taken from a very old issue of ‘The Aquarian Age’ dated May/June 1924. I came across it whilst going through some of my old papers.
This prayer centred around God love is given as an unfailing means of finding the Master in the heart.
The powerful prayer should be meditated upon phrase by phrase with deepening realization, until the full beauty and truth of the final words becomes a matter of direct spiritual experience."
Blessings.

God Love – A Prayer To
Rest In Presence And Know
God's Love, Joy And Peace
‘O gracious Lord, I enter thy radiance and
approach thy presence bearing with me the service done in thy name and for
thee.
I seek to become a more efficient server and I open my heart and mind to the
power of thy love, thy joy, and thy peace.
In thy presence, thy love floods my being.
Love which is gentleness, kindness,
helpfulness.
I choose therefore to be gentle, loving, kind and helpful to all men.
In thy presence thy joy pervades me.
Joy which is light, radiance and eternal
youth.
I choose therefore to bear thy joy to those who are sad and depressed.
In thy presence thy peace enfolds me and fills me with contentment, certainty,
rest, stillness.
Thy peace which passeth understanding.
I choose therefore to
be a center of love, joy and peace in the world.
I place my hand in thine with all love, trust and confidence for thou are
indeed my Lord.
From the unreal lead me to the real,
from darkness to light,
from death to life
eternal.
At thy feet and in the light of thy holy presence I strive to realize what I
am.
I am not this body which belongs to the world of shadows;
I am not the desires which affect it;
I am not the thoughts which fill my mind;
I am not the mind itself.
I am the divine flame within my heart, eternal, immortal, ancient, without
beginning, without end.
More radiant than the sun in all His noonday glory,
purer than the snow, untouched, unsullied by the hand of matter;
more subtle than the ether is the spirit within my heart.
I and the Father are one.
I
adore thee,
thou my life,
my breath,
my
being,
my all.
I am in thee and thou art in me.
Lead
me gracious Lord through illimitable love to union with thee and the
heart of eternal love.
Amen.
Thank you Robert. This is such a beautiful and powerful prayer to come to know and rest in God’s love, joy and peace.
