Proving God Through Action
|
If you desire to better, deepen, fulfill, or energize your life towards a happier goal, first you must transform your spiritual emotional life. To improve or transform anyone’s emotional life, it is best to deepen your spiritual life. That means getting In touch with the Kingdom of God. To get in touch with God, you must first assume there is a God. Assume there is a God. Try to apply His principles to reality. Through applying benevolence, concern, compassion, tolerance to others as well as patience to the reality plight, you may find to your amazement there is a spiritual current outside yourself that your efforts will fuse into. There is a Spiritual Force outside helping us as we try to push along the Spiritual Force inside of us. You may be tapping into forces that begin to work through you. You will be merging your spiritual current into the great magnetic force of the Universal World Spirit that is always charging, recycling, purifying, and refreshing the universe. To recognize the spiritual Kingdom, to trace the lines, to recognize God at work, to be convinced of God’s existence, is through starting a private or small semi-private project with God as your co-worker and sponsor. It must be undertaken for benevolent reasons. It involves prayer and working in constant communication through experiment and dialogue with God. If you are a non-believer, first you may feel uncomfortable talking to God, but you soon find God is not talking back literally but affecting your feelings and your view of things so you sense what is true and right without God’s saying a word. God’s communications are felt and seen, but are usually non-verbal. God comes into spiritual focus as you work with Him for some good for others. Yet you must stick to your purpose, work hard and pray actively. You must realize things do not have to go just your way. God is subtle and ironic in His ways. He moves by inches, not yards. His diversions are curious. His mind is beyond ours. But with the grace of God working through you, you may not see God in the flesh, but you will be aware of Him. You will know from working with Him that the Redeemer liveth. In your your life you will have seen God working from behind the curtain of materialism that hides so much from us, but not all. Through His grace, we see His glory. |
