Why We Can’t Run Away…

You cannot separate your Self from your Creator, Who created you by sharing His Being with you.  – A Course in Miracles – ACIM

from self

We can drink as much as we want. We may lose self to eating. We can be lost in ambition acquiring and conquering this world. We may never leave our mobile phone or get off Facebook. But we can never run away from our own life. At some point we must contend with who we really are and what we came to this planet to do…

from god

God is reality. We cannot run away from reality. We live and move in the very being of  God. God waits patiently until we turn our attention to him. He’s ever near and available…

How To Feel Safe…

Do not permit the magnitude of God, his infinity, either to obscure or eclipse his personality. "He who planned the ear, shall he not hear? He who formed the eye, shall he not see?"  – The Urantia Papers (1:5.1)

god is great

God is much more than any of us can experience or even imagine. How do we think of God? Is he the supreme energy or the great Person? Or is he a combination and a lot more?

he understands

God knows us intimately because he travels with us on our earthly journey. He hears just like we do and can see what we see. He lives in our skin. We ought to feel safe in his presence.

How To Live In The Moment!

We consider the present as a means to an end, so the present loses its immense significance.  – Krishnamurti

the moment

It’s so hard to be fully present in the moment. Why is that?

means to an end

In any given moment we’re generally doing one of 2 things: 1) We’re thinking about the past or 2) we’re planning/worrying about the future. We use the current moment to process the past or configure the future. We may instead use some of these moments to just be present. Then we’ll discover the ‘Now’ in its full glory and recognize its eternality.

How To Pray…

Prayer enables us to transform the world, because it transforms us.  – Marianne Williamson

why pray?

We pray because we want to connect to divinity. Divinity is ever present and by praying constantly we ensure an ongoing connection with reality.

us

Prayer is all about us. The more we pray the more we get transformed. The more we’re able to deal with the vicissitudes of life and its challenges. As we transform so does the world.

You are the center of divine operation in your life, and your partner is the Universe. No one can get in the way of your creation.  – Rhonda Byrne

God created individuals. He endowed us with that same spark of creation. What we can create when we go in partnership with the divine is unpredictable.

How To Lead A Blessed Life!

In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.  – Proverbs 3:5-6

god

If God exists then he’s ever-present in our lives and he’s very interested in what we do. If God is present in our lives then why do we ignore him? Why does it take an upset before we may think of him?

acknowledge him

In good times or bad it behooves us to stay in touch with God. He will guide our life if we let him into the door. He will console us when we’re despondent. He wants us to live a joyous and fruitful life. It will be so when we make him our companion through life…

When To Talk To God

True, you do well to pray when harassed, but you should also be mindful to speak as a son to your Father even when all goes well with your soul.  – Jesus, The Urantia Papers, (146:2.12)

God is ever present. If he can hear us, shouldn’t we be talking to him? Should we not do it more often than we do now?
