Love Gratitude

De: S. Joel Goldsmith

Love Gratitude (1952) is a collection of two essays by Joel S. Goldsmith, a mystical teacher, spiritual healer, and writer. Goldsmith was the creator of a set of principles called "The Infinite Way," which taught that man's nature was to be one with God and to express his infinite power and love.

Joel S. Goldsmith (b. 1982, d. 1964) was born in New York City to non-practicing Jewish parents. He began his career as an apprentice in his father's import business, which gave him the opportunity to travel extensively. The great poverty and suffering that he encountered throughout the world, along with the horrors of war that he experienced as a Marine during World War I, set him on a search for universal truth.

This work is a compilation of two of Goldsmith's essays, titled Love and Gratitude. Through seven short sections, Love explores how love flows around us and through us. We can "Open the avenues of Love through each other by not looking to each other for it but by looking to God for it."

When we expect something in return for an expression of love, we demonstrate only human love, a poor facsimile of the real thing. But when we expect no return for the outpouring of our love, when we accept that "whatever of Love you express is God expressing Itself and so you need not expect a return from it, from that time you enter an entirely new consciousness of life...."

The second essay, "Gratitude," teaches that gratitude, like love, is "God expressing Itself through man as man." Goldsmith argues that it is impossible to express gratitude "without expressing some degree of God while you are BEING grateful, for Gratitude is of God...not of man."
