Deserved Love.

Pure Love is an unyielding Light, at times hard to take.  Our hearts cry out all of our lives, "I deserve to be loved!"  However, once we begin to be loved well, our hearts despair, "I don't deserve this love!"  In that is the beginning of our true identity, a noble and good fear and a realization of the power and nature of a Pure Love.  We begin to realize that the reasons we feel like we don't deserve the goodness are unfounded and the reasons we feel like we do deserve it are not what we once thought.  It's not about us.  God is Love and we get access to his love because of who he is, not because of who we are.  And better yet, the who we are doesn't count against us.

Pure Love is an unyielding Light and will not tolerate darkness.  If we have things we wish to remain hidden, Love can become an interrogation.  But once we accept our identity of a Child of God, the light no longer burns, but instead gives life.  This is the beginning of True Love, his Love that fuels all other good love.
