Thank you for sharing. I have mucho Frisson. Not only does God love us, but we are all God - all parts of God. We are One. We are Pure Consciousness. We have been fed a lie of separateness - of a God outside ourselves. Embrace our unity and go inside to find God. Love ourselves and each other. We are One. We are God. We are Love.

The word that so many follow called the Bible teach that but they refuse to take the blinders off to see the truth in it. Psalm 82-vs 6 I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High. John 10 vs 35-36 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and the Scripture cannot be broken— / then what about the One whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world? How then can you accuse Me of blasphemy for stating that I am the Son of God?

If one truly loves oneself, they also in effect love God as we are just a fragmented portion of God. For that reason, he sees everything we see, hears all that we hear, feels all that we feel, tastes all that we taste, and knows everything we do. Regardless of what the people do to us, they can never truly separate us from God.

That "frisson" was the Holy Spirit confirming that God does indeed love you. Also, being able to feel emotions easily just makes you more human. I'm pretty empathic myself.

I find love to be a strange emotion because it kind of flows everywhere. God loves me, I love him, we love others, and we can even love our enemies by the grace of God. It's the most transformative emotion. The Bible says love casts out fear (1 Jn. 4:18), so that probably makes it the most powerful emotion or force in the Universe.

So true Martin. I had never actually verbalized it the way I did. I knew in my heart that I was loved by my creator, but to actually say it and then feel the response was quite amazing.

Sometimes when I am singing to His people I get that feeling and wonder if the people hearing me are having the same reaction. This is one that gets to me every time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUaCSnjfiDE Let me know if you feel something while listening.

There’s a book by a psychologist. I forget the name of the book, but it’s by Maslow. It has a hierarchy of living and being kind of documents this phenomenon peak experience and only a certain percentage of the population experiences this phenomenon

And it possibly will orientate you on this continued evolution

When I was in college, during one of my classes, we took a test based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. I scored 100%. The next time I was in the class the whole period was devoted by the teacher and students to grill me to try and figure out how I managed to score 100% while some scored as low as 60%. In the end result, this is what it came down to…

I thought the picture I posted would show. Apparently not. Here is what it said..."The greatest fear in the world is the opinion of others, and the moment you are unafraid of the crowd, you are no longer a sheep, you become a lion. A great roar arises in your heart, the roar of freedom." This describes me since my days in junior high.

Thank you for your “2 cents worth” Sherri, I would place a lot more value on your comment than that. The two greatest commandments fall into your statement. Love your Creator with all your heart, mind, body and soul and love your neighbor as yourself. Wouldn’t this be a wonderful world if those simple precepts were utilized universally? No more war, no more religions to cause division. Understanding that Love from our Creators perspective is actually doable.

So very true just as the occupiers are not the people referred to in the Bible.
