Enkindle - Love is like the wind

Love is like the wind.

And when love elevates us beyond our own selves, something wondrous occurs: we begin to see the world not through our own eyes, but through the eyes of the Love of God.

Love is like the wind—unseen, mysterious, arriving without warning and departing just as quietly. It is not a matter of choice or will, nor born of mere desire. Instead, love seizes us, possesses us, and transforms every fibre of our being into that of a child, embodying immortal innocence.

We cannot dictate the course love takes or where it leads us. Yet, when love envelops us, something miraculous occurs, something truly wonderful. All that is required is a sincere heart and a surrendered soul.

Love takes the flawed, broken human, marred by unforgiveness, resentment, and selfishness, and gently reshapes them into a newly recreated and enkindled being—a newborn child.

In this transformation, love ceases to be an 'it' and becomes 'you.' Love shifts from a mere verb to a profound noun. You become a new creation, transformed by the divine love of God into a being of transformation.

As the soul surrenders, peace and resolution take root. Love's strength is incomprehensible, and in an instant, you merge with the wind, that breath whose origin and destination is God, seeking another soul to imbue with His very essence—healing, restoring, recreating.

This is the path of love.

And then, you realize that you do not merely possess the love of God; His love possesses you. You transcend this world, becoming part of His realm, seeing life through His eyes, mind, and heart.

Of all the marvels and wonders you encounter, this truth stands supreme: God is love.

United with Him, you too become love.
