Love was not born. Love always was before and after Creation as you know it. There did not have to be an Other in order for love to be.
Love runs on its own steam. Love is unconquerable. It is beyond compare. It is not really that love is like this or like that. Love is endless. Most importantly, love IS. And I AM, and you ARE. Existence is. There is no existence without love. Love wins the day. Love IS the day. Love is love is love is love, and this is the whole story.
And you are love and nothing but love. An atom is love. Love joins all hearts. There is not one heart that is not connected. All hearts are One. In the fiction of friction, you may think otherwise. If you think otherwise, you are looking at only the surface, the painted on, the cover-up, the disguise. You can only be in a guise of non-love because non-love does not exist. There is no place where non-love lives. Long live love. It is all, and it is Infinite, and love is here, and love is now.
It may seem that you can curtail love. It may seem that your heart has been cut in two or into many pieces. Your heart may seem shredded, yet that is only an image, a false image.
Have no Gods before Me is speaking of love. Do not put a sword before Me, for what am I? I am love. I am love nonpareil. And so are you. Whatever you may think, so are you.
