The First Whisper of Love
The First Whisper of Love
August 03, 2020
Have you ever tried to put a description or a meaning to this word ‘LOVE’? Every time I think about this word, love, I have a hard time putting a concrete definition to it in my mind. How would you describe to someone what love is?
1 Corinthians 13:1–3 · New International Version If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
The Greek word for love is ‘agape’ — affection or benevolence; a love that gives freely without condition.
What is it about this word? There seems to be great power in it — but how… why? Does the power come from just saying the word or thinking it? It seems this word has something to do with God.
I remember a piece I did quite a while ago, ‘Living Water’, about how positive and negative words spoken over water affected it. There have been different kinds of experiments using water and words, and the results were quite amazing.
I am reading The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield right now. It is an astonishing book — and quite remarkable how the things talked about in it pertain to what is happening in our world today and possibly what will happen in the future.
We’ve all experienced how certain things come into our lives as though they were predestined to be there at that very point in time. This book showing up in my life at this precise moment — when my desire is to understand love — is one of those experiences.
528 Hz — The Love Frequency
The book talks about how everything vibrates at a certain frequency — everything. So I wondered if this word love has a frequency, and I was blown away by what I found out.
The love frequency is 528 Hz. This frequency resonates at the heart of everything. It is the core frequency of our universe — known as the ‘Miracle’ tone. It is the frequency that is central to the “musical mathematical matrix of creation.” It connects your heart, your spiritual essence, to the spiraling reality of heaven and earth.
528 Hz is one of six tones in what is known as the ancient Solfeggio scale — a system of frequencies believed to have been woven into sacred music, including Gregorian chants, and rediscovered through biblical numerology research in the 1970s. Each tone carries a different resonance: some associated with healing, others with awakening, others with transformation. 528 Hz is the third — marked “Mi” in the old Latin notation, taken from the phrase Mira gestorum, meaning miracle of deeds. That is the origin of its name: the Miracle Tone.
What makes 528 Hz remarkable is not only its spiritual association, but where it appears mathematically. It is found in the structure of the golden ratio — the same proportion that governs the spiral of flower petals, the chambers of a nautilus shell, and the double helix of human DNA. Creation itself seems to be built on this proportion. And love, it appears, vibrates at its center.
Science has confirmed at least one dimension of this: music tuned to 528 Hz measurably reduces cortisol — the body’s primary stress hormone — more than other frequencies. Something in our cells responds to this particular tone in a way it does not respond to others. Our bodies seem to recognize it.
If everything vibrates, and love vibrates at the very core of creation, then love is not peripheral to the universe. It is foundational to it. The fabric of all that exists hums with it.
Love Is Who God Is
But then something quieter arrived.
Even with all of this — the frequency, the mathematics, the ancient tones — I still cannot put love into words. Not really. 528 Hz is remarkable. But it cannot hold love. Not completely.
Because love is not a tone. Love is not a definition. Love is not a frequency.
Love is who God is.
First John 4:8 does not say that God has love, or that God gives love, or that God shows love. It says God is love. That is a different kind of statement altogether. It means love is not something God does — it is what He is. His nature. His essence. The very substance of who He is.
So when I ask, “What is love?” — I am really asking, “What is God?” And that is a question no frequency can answer. No dictionary can hold it. No human mind can fully contain it.
How do you describe God?
You can point to Him. You can experience Him. You can stand in what He is the way you stand in the warmth of the sun — feeling it fully without being able to hold it in your hands.
Maybe that is the most honest thing I can say about love: I cannot describe it. But I know it when I am standing in it.
The Living Water experiments showed us that words carry real weight — that what we speak shapes the world around us at a molecular level. If that is true of any word, how much more true of this one?
That first whisper of love was not spoken into a void. It was spoken into creation — and creation is still resonating with it.
