When I started on my spiritual journey, I would have nothing to do with Jesus, Mary and Joseph. But then I was given permission to have a God of my own understanding! That set me free to find my God...to even have a God in truth.
It was hearing others whom I respected share their spiritual reality that broke me free of me for I knew by their actions they had hit paydirt...on that I started the building of the God of my understanding.
Looking back, I can see that I picked from Her and chose from Him, mainly via my beloved "God Calling." It was when I learned that the Sermon on the Mount was my people's first How-To Manual that my deal was sealed.
Now...lo!...all these years later, the God of my understanding is a lot Jesus and the Sermon, some Mary, maybe a little Joseph, but primarily the freedom to interpret my Father as my inner self dictates and my mentor guides and my friends don't disagree. I take very seriously the warning that it is dangerous to go it alone in spiritual matters.
Go beyond reason to love and laugh.
Thank you.
