We are being forcibly made to see how true this saying is, when we take time to look around the world and observe the lack of love everywhere we look.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to find love in operation no matter where we look. It appears that the vast majority of people are intent only on satisfying their own desires, with little or no interest in anyone else's needs. Because of this lack of love, the world is becoming more and more like a desert. Love can be equated with the water that is one of the essential elements for growth, whether for plants, animals or humans.

So, how can we express more love in our lives, when we have not been taught how to love or how to receive love? The only way we can overcome this disability is to ask Baba, who represents in physical form our own God-self, to allow His unconditional love to flow into every aspect of our lives, and fill us so full that we are then able to direct it out into the world and to everyone in it.

This will bring about a change by rectifying the lack of balance we see all around us. In this way, we will be doing our part to help this worldwide situation instead of complaining about it, yet doing nothing to remedy this sick condition. When we have decided to follow Baba's teachings and apply them in our lives, it is our responsibility to take part in His mission to bring about positive changes in the world. We can best do so by expressing the love of our own God-self to all aspects of life, but particularly to those people who need it the most. These include those of any race or religious belief, but above all, those who are sick, depressed, hungry, or filled with hate, for love has the power to overcome all negative feelings and conditions.
