The Angel Corner:
Raison D'etre

An angel reminder: "Let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does not love doesnot know God; for God is love."
1 John 4:7,8 (New American Standard Bible)
God is the angels' raison d'etre, and God is love. Love is our reason for being, and we are born of God's love and the angels watch over us. We are part of a wonderful trinity or triangle of love-God, the angels and us. To understand how God loves us we must understand that this love exists for free. God does not love us because of our good deeds or because of how much we love God; God's love for us is always the same regardles of what we do, where we live, or what we look like. We are loved whether we like it or not. You could spend your whole life trying to find ways to live and actions to take that would please God, but really you only need to find a way to be your whole self: body, mind, and spirit. Remember: God loves us even when we don't love ourselves.
Do you think of love as an accumulative force or as a free energy? Do you feel love is your raison d'etre? Do you think you could increase God's love for you? Think about your feelings about love and God. Realize that the angels behold the face of love at all times. We too have God within us at all times, for we have love in our hearts always, regardless of whether or not we are allowing it to show. The angels say, "Relax, God is love."
An Angelic Reflection: I feel God's unconditional love for me and I pass it on to others.
God doesn't pass judgment, blame, or opinion in his love for us, can we say the same in the way we love each other?
