The Spiritual Journey
The bible states that we are all created equal in the sight
of God. The same essence that God is, we are, therefore that
makes us co-creators. Our creator gave us free will to
choose our path through the universe and through our many
incarnations on the earth.
When we as souls began to experience living in the physical
body, we lost sight of our true selves. With each
incarnation into the physical realm, the memories of who we
really are faded more and more each time. With each life on
earth, we began accruing karma. As a result, we have had to
learn many lessons, and learn how to clear this karma from
our body and soul. We have been doing this for eons of time,
and as a result, we have evolved to our present level.
I believe this level is about learning to love
unconditionally, to learn not to be judgmental with each
other, to see ourselves and others as spiritual beings
living in a physical body. As we grow in our spiritual life,
we will begin to see and know each other as spirit beings,
and to come to the realization that we always have been. I
believe there is a growing awareness of this. I also believe
that we are starting to realize that what we do to each
other, we do to ourselves.
If, or when we take the time in our daily life to
consciously project this to everyone we come in contact
with, we will see this awareness grow. We could learn a lot
if we would watch our young children. They accept each other
unconditionally. As they grow up, they "grow down" in their
thoughts of each other. It seems that they learn this from
the adults that surround them.
I believe that our thoughts and our words shape our
tomorrows. We build our future by these two things. These
are the seeds we sow to reap at a later date. The wheel of
justice never stops turning. We reap the good as well as the
not so good. We are given the opportunity with each
incarnation to learn from the conditions and/or
circumstances we find ourselves in. We choose the
circumstances that we have in this life, before we are born.
These are the opportunities to express our highest and best
selves.
On the soul’s path of evolvement, service to God, and
ourselves comes first. Next comes service to others. This
can be given in many ways. The other is to love others as we
love ourselves. Remember, we are all equal so we need not be
of service to others at the expense of our self.
Establish in your mind that life is infinite and eternal;
that there has never been a time when you were not living
and there never will be. The process of "death," of leaving
the physical body, and then being born again into the
physical, continues until we have evolved enough in spirit
to gain freedom from the karmic wheel; to become one with
our creator again.
There are souls among us who choose to incarnate to serve
humanity. These souls don't have to do this. Some live
humbly among the masses, keeping the faith and helping
others to do the same. Some are masters, spurred by their
high ideals. They understand and are there to help souls on
the upward path.
We must all learn that we are one. The future of humankind
will be entirely different, once we know this. By love
finding expression in patience and service, by being in
fellowship and brotherhood with each other. We are learning
that the good of others is our good too.
Throughout our life we are actively creating our world. All
life is a process of thought. What you think about, you draw
into your vibration. Everything in our world came into form
because it was a thought in someone's mind. That makes all
of us responsible for our world. We all had an equal hand in
creating it. We are all linked together in creator-ship with
one another.
I believe our responsibility is to help the spiritual
evolution of all life. To beautify the earth, and to live in
peace and happiness. This is God's wish for all living
beings. The progress of the world depends on each individual
and how we live our life.
May we all live in love and light with God's blessing.
