Make conscious contact
May 31, 2018
God must become an activity in our consciousness.
— Joel S. Goldsmith
God is not separate from this beautiful world that he created. He is the creative force behind everything we do. He is the sunrise, the moonrise, the tides, and the eclipse. He created us from nothing, and we are special for no other reason than that we are.
When we let go of our separateness and welcome the fact that we are a part of the universe, an amazing thing happens: we see we are a part of the glory of the universe.
God is more than a great father standing judgmentally above looking down with a mix of love and anger at his creation. We were created in God’s image. We are a part of God, and a part of God’s spirit resides in each of us.
We are a part of universal consciousness.
Today, whether you are feeling down and sad or joyous and free, take a moment and get in touch with the part of God that resides within you. You’re a part of something bigger than all the petty victories and losses in your life. Enjoy your uniqueness; embrace your universality, too. Find comfort and humility in all that is.
See God in your life and in the world. Pray. Meditate.
Make conscious contact with your God.
God, help me make conscious contact with you today.
