About the Bible...knowing nothing, I speak freely applies here for sure. I know little to less than that about the Bible, so, you betcha, I'm now writing about Bible matters, things written therein. What I rely on from the Bible is what makes sense to me...proven true or not true by popes, preachers, agnostics and atheists.
So this came to me to ponder: When David first spoke the 23rd Psalm, the words came to him from within himself...from the Father within, speaking through him.
When Jesus first prayed the Lord's Prayer, the words came to him from within himself...from the Father within, speaking through him.
When Francis of Assisi first prayed his prayer, the words came to him from within himself...from the Father within, speaking through him.
I use each of those for my meditation every morning...and I doubt not many do the same or close enough. My entire point being: David, Jesus, Francis all spoke from God consciousness...and the same God consciousness is ours as we meditate each day.
I continue to want to be lifted into God consciousness. Well, whoa and wow! We are in God consciousness. The reasoning mind's inability to believe it does not make the reasoning mind's word righter, just louder.
Here's a thought: What if we are ever in God consciousness? Our trusting unto living that would determine our actions, our behavior, our decisions...our life.
Actually, I doubt we are intended to live 100 percent in God consciousness...else why be given "free choice" and "the human condition"?
I'm guessing the intent is for us to live in our gift, the human condition, with our life's aim being to live not for our self but for others. Which is to say, messing up, as in, when...not if...wrong, admit, atone and move on...to mess up again. How else do we learn but by getting it wrong to get it right.
There...that may well be as close to living in God consciousness as we are intended to get. Maybe not, but it's a path to walk until we find a better path.
We find better by doing better, then screwing up...again... and praying our thank you. In other words, living in gratitude...by grace.
Thank you.
