Humanity Is Evolving Their Idea Of God

Who really is God, and why is he neither here nor there?

Humanity Is Evolving Their Idea Of God

For a substantial amount of time, the idea of God has manifested as a separate being. A being that is claimed as all-loving yet seeks consequences for those who do not follow his path or guideline. Our world is shifting in positive ways to encompass change in thought, word, and deed. We are expanding to find that which was lost in order to know God, ourselves, and the other once again.

Let's get one thing straight, God is not separate from you. Humanity is finding more and more truth in this statement. Perhaps because it is true. One time or another we have all considered God to be in our image. A mighty powerful manly figure, a deity, or something that can be imagined by the human consciousness. I tell you this, he, she, it can simply not be. In order to create such magnificence that you see around you, God is something completely different than ever imagined. It is everything that once was and will ever be. Yet, you may think, does this statement contradict that there is a God, to begin with? To that, I answer no.

It is beyond our human understanding just who God is and why the world is as it stands. Many ask why the world is in toil and heartache. It profoundly may seem so, if you look at it with a human mind-like standpoint. We know that it has been said God loves everything. It does. Negativity is a choice we create in trying to find oneself. To experience who we are through life. We contain so much power that we simply do not realize how impactful we are with our thoughts. Much less through our words and deeds. It is simply not possible for us to make a mistake in God's eyes because we are made in the image of God. God does not create something that is mistaken. Therefore, shall you remember how precious and grand you are? God is not capable of condemnation. This is not because God is incapable of doing so but because he simply knows everything there is to know. Once you understand how and why mistakes are made it is impossible to condemn something that you understand. In fact, there simply are no mistakes, only experiences. After all, God made us in the image of him. This image is anything and everything there is to see, hear, smell, taste, and touch.

You may ask, "Why has God forsaken me?" This is a very wise question to ask because of your limited understanding of what God has given us. He has given us the power of free will. Not in the sense that "I give you free will but you shall not choose the wrong decision" but rather " You are my child, and I care not which toys you play with but rather the outcome. " This outcome is always returning to him. The full realization of yourself through human experience. He knows this for he has made it so, in order for you to experience the likeness of himself through you or rather yourself through him. Getting lost yet? Take all the time you need. After all, you have many lifetimes ahead of you.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
