The Soul Power of your God
The Soul Power of your God
Search the heavens and dissect the stars until you are blue
in the face and it will not bring you closer to any divine personage. Read one
thousand books and study literature from ancient manuscripts and it does not
bring you into the presence of the divine.
They bring you to the door.
They do not allow you to cross the threshold nor do they
permit you to enter. You may look through the door and perhaps catch a glimpse
of something divine or magical but that is all.
As soon as you look away, life
catches your attention.
You are aware that such a Presence exists and you may have
been taught that there is a place where all things and all people are created
equal, yet you seldom actually touch it.
There is only one thing that brings you into direct
connection with the Soul Power of the God of your being . . . your imagination.
The divine does not appear before you as a neighbour does,
yet in your imagination the God of your being is alive and real.
There are no physical ten commandments, yet in your
imagination the stories are real.
You can believe until the cows come home, and yet your beliefs
are cushioned by your imagination.
Scriptures can reveal the wisest of words, but the authors
are given prominence by your imagination.
Great stories can inspire you, yet they are fostered and
fired by the imagination and kept alive there too.
Whole kingdoms of beliefs are given a graceful abode within
the realms of the imagination and without its abundant care; none of the above
would be possible.
Your imagination is the bridge between you and the God of your being. You can only imagine what your god is like. You can only imagine
what the kingdom of peace is like. You can only imagine what true love is like
and grace and compassion. Your imagination is like a carefully tended garden
and your beliefs are only the images in a magazine showing all the flowers
growing within it.
Why do you think imagination exists in the first place?
It is no mistake that there is a bridge for you to cross . .
. a bridge of beliefs . . . and whilst you cross it and you stand on it, it
gives you comfort.
. . . But what of the other side?
What lies there? What lies beyond belief?
So many people are heard to say that they believe in god.
Whilst belief serves a purpose and is good and is a transition, many people
don’t know that there is a destination . . . an experience that can be had.
When a person crosses that bridge of beliefs and lands on
the other side . . . what then?
Well, beliefs go out the window, for one!
Why?
Because - on the far side of that bridge of beliefs and in
the realms of the imagination, there is a meeting place between you and the God
of your being.
And in that meeting place, you no longer need to believe . .
.
You know.
