Sometimes I just feel overwhelmed with love for the beauty of Divine Truths that God has let distill on our souls. What a joy it is to know we are all children of God, with divine natures!
How blessed is God, who shares Light so abundantly with us all, speaking to our hearts and minds, in a "still small voice" that brings the greatest of joys!
Do you feel it? How does the "God feeling" feel for you? How do you describe that feeling... Using words from your own religion, so we can see how different people describe the same thing.
((((((((LOVE)))))))))

Nea, the God concept appeals to every aspect of myself... my mind, my heart and my physical body.

All the beautiful and true answers make it so hard for me to pick. Thank you for sharing your experiences and your feelings about Love. Spouse Love, Love for God, Love for Humanity... they are all connecting us to the Divine Source... filling life with purpose. Who do I pick? I really can't decide!

I get such a feeling of elation when i connect with Jesus. Just last night, He answered my prayer. It's an awesome feeling that is hard to describe. I wish everyone could feel it.

I don't see any answers that describe the feeling in terms that can be understood. When I first experienced the feeling of being filled with the spirit of the Holy Ghost, such that I would describe myself as being born again, was when I was a freshman at BYU. I was at total peace with the world. I could walk across campus with a smile and feel completely relaxed and comfortable with my surroundings. I felt complete peace in my heart and mind. I felt I had no ill feelings toward any person. I had no desire to do ill toward anyone but to do good continually.
Ever since that occasion, I can remember it and know whether I am still feeling the same thing now. I have not always retained that feeling of calm peacefulness. I have had to examine myself from time to time and correct my position, spiritually speaking, in order to regain that peaceful feeling of spiritual rebirth or love toward all things.
Thus, love, in the context in which you present it, equates with the peace that comes from the Holy Ghost. I feel a similar comfortable peace when I am lying quietly with my wife at night. Is there an overlapping of spousal love with Godly love? Perhaps. It goes to the depth of our emotions and feelings. There is no other person that I love any more than my wife. Likewise, there is no other feeling that I cherish more than the peace that comes from the Holy Ghost.

Same and when you know His eternal form and pass times and qualities beyond this nature He is even more ecstatic. Totally enlivening totally loving helping us in all of our endeavors. He is so Beautiful. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada says "If you think His artwork is magnificent, wait until you meet the artiest." We can see God face to face, don't let anyone tell you different. It is only a matter of Him removing the veils of illusion over our consciousness. He is everywhere and within our heart in person. Oh Krishna, I love Him! Loving, Ecstatic, blissful, most merciful. I'm Smiling.

"I'm being consumed by
something far greater
than any obsession
I've known
My spirit and mind
and hastily quickened
Because seeds of Truth
had been sown.
The obsession is deeper
than bond with a child
That comes from a womb
once too bare
It surpasses all passion
and passionate love
And the fiery lust
lovers share.
It gives a new meaning
to the meaning of "friend"
And turns former truths
into lies
Through reading the Bible
and walking with God
The "old personality"
dies."
Written by me in 2001 as I was progressing toward being baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses.

You are truly blessed.
Not all can feel as you do, as the ego gets in the way.
I concur wholeheartedly with you.
To be love, live love, in love, to know what this is, having this as your seat of consciousness, is all there is.
The rest is the illusion, many will scoff, it is there ignorance.
The world is a better place for people like you.
Stay connected sister. You are awake to this world, aware and truly alive.
Bright blessings

I'm happy for you.
but I think to fully appreciate the human condition here on earth, it's best to combine a bit of reason and logic to go along with your passion.
Sadly, Reason/logic and Faith cannot coexist.

I feel His love for me alot. Last Sunday during church I was healed again. I seemed to be getting healed everytime I attend church, which I am so thankful. I love Jesus so very much and ask each day that I become more like Him. I know I am changing and for this reason I know that God loves me so.

G-d gave me the ability to love. It's the most wonderful feeling in the world. I can't believe how amazing it is. My boyfriend means the world to me. and through G-d's gift to me I get to share a lifetime of happiness with Him and my wonderful man.

we have supposedly 7 chackras, and one of the chakras is the [heart center] when the heart center chackra is open, you feel this overweling love [ mecanical valve action ]
and when some one makes you mad ,the heart chackra valve closes and you say [ i dont love them any more]
________________
for me i try to care about people with out opening the heart chakra valve----not by choice...but it a Little stuck some times
i try to be>> a kind and loving person<<...by choice....not be googly in love,for me this works.
i [KNOW IT] but i dont > express it
i am a little sentimental but not that much
introvert not extrovert:)

You mean God's Love? It is evidentary from the Cross.
He (Jesus) paid the price for my sins, redeeming my soul, rose again and provided eternal life. And simply just by believing He is God, and that he did that, (as well as confessing my sins and renouncing them) that i have the promise of eternity in the presence of God. I get to worship him for eternity, and see him face to face. I see no greater love than that. That pretty much ought to be reciprocated.
God's love is evidentary, not just from the Cross, but in the small things in life that we have to be thankful for. â¥

Well.... are YOU overwhelmed with this......
(James 1:22) But become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Thanks for Asking ! RR
