God hears
My heartfelt
longing,
It’s plain for
all to see
For when I
seek His comfort
He tells me,
“Be like Me.”
B.L. Woodard & G.D.
Kilbourn
Learn to be
like God. Begin in all humility and
selflessness to quiet the mind. Look within and ask:”Am I being true to
myself?” “Am I fulfilled?” “what is my purpose?” Common sense and reason will give the answers. Thence comes the uncertainty
of knowing, what next? What is next is an awareness of the fact we are not the
person we see and touch. There is another – our true being – within: We are at
once both physically mortal and spiritually immortal. God is our soul, ever
present within us, and we in Him: Truly, we are one.
Think as you will, do as you
will, unless you acknowledge your own true inner spiritual being, you will
forever be alone. Only when you come to terms with the fact that you are not
one, but two distinct, yet interdependent, beings will you come to love your
neighbour as yourself and do unto others as you would have them do to you.
Recognizing the goodness in others is an exercise in spiritual intuition, the
use of one’s sixth and seventh senses which override the body’s five mortal
senses. Figuratively speaking, it means stepping back and quieting the mind to
hear the voice of our true inner being – the voice of the soul – which in turn
allows an understanding of the other.
