The following is from J. Rufus Moseley as recorded in the book Ineffable Union With Christ: Living in the Kingdom (Selected Writings of J. Rufus Moseley, 1927-1937) compiled and edited by Gregory S. Camp:
"To live in Him [the Lord Jesus] everywhere is to love and bless everywhere and to do nothing but love and bless everywhere, in every situation. Love both fulfills and transcends all law.
"When in doubt as to what to do, do the kindest and most loving thing, and you will find that this is the will and guidance of God.
"As long as we try to get things selfishly--even by prayer--we are just beating ourselves against the will of God. When we consent to love and do nothing but love and bless, we yield and swing into the will of God and into union with God.
"There is no other way to be in union with God who is love, except to yield to His Good Spirit and to His love and go to loving. When we love one another as He loves us, we will be in perfect union with Him, and all things of His will be consciously ours.
". . . To do His will of love and goodness does not seem easy and possible until you swing into it--until you make the adventure of faith, love, and obedience. Then it is seen to be reasonable and sensible, the blessed, the only thing.
"The obedience of faith and love brings and keeps us in the presence and fellowship of the Lord. In this presence and fellowship it is divinely easy and happy to do His will of faith, love, kindness and blessedness."
