When you apply a certain word to God, it must bear the same essential meaning as it does when you apply it to man—otherwise it has no meaning at all. When you say that God is Love or Intelligence, or that He is Just, these words must mean substantially what they mean when applied to human beings. The love of God must be essentially the same that we know as the love of the mother for her children, or the love of the artist for his creation, purified and increased to infinity, of course.

The truth is that God is Love and Intelligence; and that He works with perfect wisdom and perfect justice to all, at all times, in the ordinary and correct meaning of these words.

…God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all (1 John 1:5).
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is Love (1 John 4:8).
Good and upright is the Lord… (Psalm 25:8).

Although there are many things in the Bible that may be hard to understand, these words have no symbolism or hidden meaning. They are plain, simple and beautiful truths. While we may have difficulty working through this or that challenge or problem that confronts us, these truths remain inviolate. We must let no hardship or misfortune separate us from these simple truths. If we light our lives with these truths, no darkness can take us from from love and protections.

Unified with the truth,
