Ah, love. The beautiful old songs tell us that love makes the world go ‘round. Love is all we need. Love is the answer.
True enough! But, so is the following: there are many kinds of love.
So, when most of us hear these old songs, we think of one kind of love – romantic love. But sincere aspirants of the higher life seek something more: our heart of hearts longs to realize a conscious relationship with a Divine order of love, one that can’t be turned into some form of disappointment, or make us fall into despair, let alone live with the fear of its loss.
Which isn’t to say we don’t treasure the love of people who are central to our lives, or the love of a pet, the love of a calling, of an art. But it’s that higher love that stands behind and is greater than them all. It is the love our hearts long for the most. And to prepare ourselves to know this love is our primary purpose on earth.
We’re talking about Divine Love.
And for more than four decades, Guy Finley’s work has been to show individuals how to reveal this hidden need and prepare themselves for its fulfillment. The process really is an education of the soul that carries the seeker into previously unknown territory. As Guy tells us:
“Only when, and as the Divine gives the aspirant what it is that his or her heart really longs for, does he realize that it would have been impossible for him to imagine, let alone ask for what he now begins to receive.”
And as we proceed on this timeless journey, it becomes apparent that the urgency to embark upon it did not even come from us but, as Guy explains, it is the Divine Itself that has led us into this great adventure:
“Recognizing the need for God in your life is the beginning of His entrance into it. And, as His is always the initiating action, what may feel like your need is really His secret invitation — announcing itself as a hunger in the heart which nothing in the world can sate.”
All of which means, if Love itself invited us to find it, and it accompanies us on our journey, then how can we fail?
We can’t. We’ve been invited to take part in the Divine wedding!
But are we ready? How do we prepare ourselves?
No worries. This is a time to celebrate. Especially since Guy is offering understanding and encouragement for this enlivening quest over our upcoming Holiday Weekend of Wisdom – and we hope you will be part of it.
This promises to be a time for opening your heart and quickening your soul. During the three days of our Holiday Weekend of Wisdom here is just a small “taste” of the special insights that Guy plans to share with everyone who attends:
• See, by the healing light of truth, that every moment of your life bears a message just for you
• Rest in the realization that the whole of life is a timeless Divine presentation – a revelation of Love looking back into...and upon Itself
• Find a life wherein it's impossible to fail by understanding that life is a grand celestial experiment in the act of love…and that you, yourself, are the laboratory, the observer, and the one being observed and acted upon
• Start on your journey to becoming the perfected human being who never fails to see the Divine at work in its tireless perfection of life
“You have been with me every step of the way toward just being myself, and your presence has been a blessing in my life. I am grateful to you for being a true guide in pointing me back to that Light that lives within us.” – Paul W., Utah
Of course, we know not everyone can visit with us in person for our Holiday Weekend of Wisdom. But that is not a problem!
As we’ve done in recent years, all our holiday talks will be livestreamed and recorded. So, regardless of where you live in the world, no matter the time zone, you can share in this special series of talks by Guy, whether live in real-time, or through our replay package.
But, that said, nothing compares to being fully immersed in the atmosphere of a genuine school, so if it is at all possible, do consider visiting us here at the Foundation.
“I know firsthand how powerful (and life-changing) the atmosphere becomes when people gather together to discover the Truth of themselves.” – Ann H.
Whether you are able to be with us here in person, or you attend via livestream, please join us for our yearly celebration of new beginnings. Love is all around us – the higher love we long for. Now you can gain the insight to make it your life’s guiding force.
