Holy Marriage

Holy Marriage
(c) 2010 Owen Joseph/shannan suzzette

The reality of love that we spend our lives trying to deny is that it is simple. Love is simple. It is not something to be bartered, traded, sold, compromised, bullied, or bent to our ways of thinking. Love is constant. Love is unchanging at the source. Meaning, that once the seed of pure love has been planted in the ground of our being it can never be destroyed.

Love is a simple seed that rests safely in the heart of God and in us as long as we live and thereafter. Love is not about sex, jealousy, or power plays. Authentic love is the root of our soul. And, when we connect with another on a truly authentic soul level with the pure intent of selfless devotion, we feel the sacred union of God in the Trinity as a holy marriage.

A holy marriage is one that is annointed by the grace of God not one that is the result of a superficial physical attraction. A holy marriage is one soul resonating with another in perfect harmony and light for the highest good of all. There are no secrets or hidden agendas in the light of a holy marriage. Knowing and sharing the divine love of God and divinity in one another offers the pleasures of divine and sacred sex, an otherworldly sober pleasure to be honored, respected, and protected with our lives.

God made the holy marriage as a gift to mankind. To love and be loved in true nakedness of being, devoid of ego or fear. The holy marriage of authentic lovers gives us the sustaining grace of God in all we do, in all we are, and in all we have yet to become.

Love unites us and sustains us. And, if it does not do that, then it is not authentic. God brings the light to those who are willing to see beyond the physical and embrace what is eternal. Love is the eternal seed from all good things are brought into this world.

May you all be blessed with authentic love and the sacred love of a holy marriage for all eternity.

love your weaknesses for therein lies your strength

“love your weaknesses for therein lies your strength. It is not through perfection that we find love…it is in our weakest hour when God shows us our heart…..there inside is where all our love abides.God’s gift is what we are most afraid of….our own depth of love.”-Owen Joseph/Shannan Suzzette

Eternal Love

“Eternal Love: the past few years we have been moving slowly through the desert with only faith as our guide. so it was that we learned to see without seeing and feel without touching and know without doubting. what is real and eternal could not be fully known until we surrendered completely….into the light of love….into the hand of God. Love requires endurance, faith, and eternal surrender. thus the glory of God is the bounty of a heart that knows no fear. love and fear cannot exist simultaneously. there is no love in fear and there is no fear in love. this is what we came to learn. eternal love abides forever in the heart of truth. Forever in the heart of us.” -Owen Joseph/Shannan Suzzette
