I LOVE GOD is dedicated to souls who yearn to have a deeper relationship with the LORD OF LOVE, and who seek to meditate upon the Wisdom of the Saints, Mystics and other Friends of God.

There are inspirational quotes, poems, hymns, psalms, and odes, posted on a regular basis for those open-minded souls who seek to follow the Way of God's Heart.

"Only one who has truly offered an inexpressible longing for the Beloved can comprehend the true nature of Love". (Rumi)

"I have found a Sea of Love, an inexhaustible flood; I have opened a treasure of spiritual knowledge, it diffuses the light of a million suns, arisen in Thy worshipper's souls." (Saint Tukaram)

There is a speaking of God in the core of the soul where no creature can enter or speak, for only God lives there and only He speaks. God speaks there when the soul puts aside all that is created, when she silences her powers and gains a vision into the foundation of her pure essence. In this pure and silent soul God the Father speaks and she hears His Voice. (Meister Eckhart)

***All seekers, friends and lovers of God are welcome.***
