Love and Divine Attraction

LOVE is the magnetism which has been placed in the human soul. It draws the secret particles of truth. And love in God is that great lodestone to which every heart springs up by attraction. And as when the magnet passes through the sand, the quartz, the gold, the silver, and the thousand other elements hid in the sand, only the iron clings to it; so when God passes near the soul, the lower love, the reason, the fear, the hope, the reverence, do not vibrate to his presence, but the higher love instantly feels the coming power, and flies to the bosom of its God.
