In
all worldly delights there is an element of the
Highest Love.
Through
a person's natural desire for such delights, it becomes easy to love God.
It
this were not true it would be very difficult even to begin to love God. But
when a person can arouse their love through material joys, it becomes easy to
love...
A
person's love for material pleasures is derived from the Highest Love. In
every desire, understand that God is helping us and making it easier to love
the Divine.
God
knows that with this, love of God could never be aroused.
