I wrote, About a Variety of Religions, in a Blog I posted in December 2009. Recently I was conversing with a friend, and something about a particular religion was mentioned, and the thought came to us that, “It doesn’t matter what religion one follows, we all pray to the same God.” So the dear soul who believes that their “God” is greater than another person’s God, is in error because they are one, and the same, awesome Creator.
I am not highly educated, and I make many mistakes, but I try to do my best to be kind and helpful. We create our own destiny by the thoughts we hold and the choices we make from day to day. I understand that humankind has inherited conditions, from many generations of warring nations, so extra effort needs to be made to overcome these conditions. Too many people believe they don’t have the power to change their thinking or their station in life. Thoughts are things which have the power to lead us in new and better directions when our intentions are to develop our highest spiritual potential.
Here comes the sticky part because I know that many people do not believe there is a Higher Power; I have learned that we, human beings, are not just bodies with minds, but we mainly are ‘souls’ which have the potential to become divine angels. The mind’s reasoning powers are quite good, but they are not infallible. If, or when, a person makes the effort to reach out to the awesome Creator, and asks for help, guidance and Love, and especially Divine Love, they will soon discover that events in their life begin to unfold in greater harmony, with less trouble and confusion.
The best suggestion I can share with seekers, who want to improve their life, is that they desire to know the truth about their spiritual potential. First, accept that you are a soul, in a flesh body, which has a reasoning mind. The material mind is energies of the soul. Spiritual Truths cannot be understood with the human mind unless the soul has been developped in the Grace of God’s Divine Love. If you want to open your opportunities to a spiritually oriented life, you need to pray often and develop your faith in the possibility of becoming at-One with God in Love. The soul is repersented by the heart, so pray from your heart and develop your soul with Love. Amen
