Paul Ferrini Love Quotes and Sayings
#1-5 The Twelve Steps of Forgiveness
1. The choice between love and fear is made every moment in our hearts and minds. That is where the peace process begins. Without peace within, peace in the world is an empty wish. Like love, peace is extended. It cannot be brought from the world to the heart. It must be brought from each heart to another, and thus to all mankind.
2. If I want your love, I must set you free. I must be willing to do without it. I must be willing to look for love within, not without.
3. And the only way I get my life jump-started is by accepting my life exactly as it is, by accepting myself and you exactly as we are. That is the place where my heart opens. That is the place where love begins.
4. I am the channel for love in the world. Only then is my call for love answered. For as I open to love, I extend it, and as I extend it, it returns to me.
5. One of the ways I begin to love myself is to begin to take responsibility for my life exactly as it is. Whatever I see on the outside is just a reflection of what is within.
#6-12 Love Without Conditions: Reflections of the Christ Mind
6. There is no human being who does not deserve your forgiveness. There is no human being who does not deserve your love.
7. You demonstrate love by giving it unconditionally to yourself. And, as you do, you attract others into your life who are able to love you without conditions.
8. Where I am now, you shall also be. And then you will know with absolute certainty that Love is who you are. It has neither been born in you nor has it died in you. It is inseparable from you. It is your only Identity.
9. Love is the only response that undoes fear. If you don’t believe this, try it. Love any person or situation that evokes fear in you and the fear will disappear. This is true, not so much because love is an antidote to fear, but because fear is “the absence of love.” It therefore cannot exist whenever love is present.
10. What is all inclusive, all accepting, all loving cannot be limited to form. Love does not choose its beloved or the moment of its expression. Love extends to all at all times. Love is without conditions; that it to say it is “without form.”
11. When you establish conditions on love, you experience the conditions, not the love. You encounter the form, not the content.
12. Beliefs separate. Loving thoughts unite.
#13 The Silence of the Heart
13. Holding back feelings is the beginning of separation. Sharing them is the ending of it.
