More on "God" and Serendipity...
"God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not live by the truth: if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another..." St. John
"God is light... God is spirit... God is love..." St. John
"God is mystery..."
"God is Life."
"God is everything and ALL."
I believe it's important to consider which is our concept of God. How do we define "God"? Do we define "Him/Her/It" at all or do we think He/She/It is not real? Maybe you consider yourself an "atheist" (defined as a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings). Maybe you consider yourself an "agnostic" (defined as one who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God, or one who is skeptical about the existence of God - but doesn't profess true atheism). Maybe you simply choose not to believe, not to be bothered, not to even think about it. Maybe you just don't agree with the definition others have given you and choose to ignore your own intuition about WHO God really is... and don't want to be bothered to find God within you. I believe that God is "unity." God unites us all. We are somehow interconnected through our spirit. I personally picture God as an ocean of wisdom, love, compassion, creativity, kindness, goodness, etc. and we are droplets of that ocean... God is within us! We have the power to connect to God, if we choose to do so. We connect to God through faith, through prayer, through reflection, through meditation, through good deeds, through inspiration...
God is alive in you! God is right here, wherever you are. God is within you and everywhere around you. God is kindness and benevolence. God is LOVE. God is the love that is breathing for you, the love that is beating your heart. We are NOT separate from God... we are ONE with God. It doesn't matter if you call God - God or something else, God is always there no matter what; even if you don't believe in this awesome power, He/She/It is everywhere, within us and around us. Open your eyes!
Are you moved by nature, by music, by life? Do you believe in a power greater than yourself? Just some questions to ponder. Of course we have complete free will; but if we concentrate in the goodness of others and our own "light" and goodness, we would certainly lead happier lives. The universe is full of mysteries, full of synchronicities, and full of unanswered questions, I know... My advice is: whatever you believe - don't dwell on the "negative." Rise above it! Trust your intuition (your most inner feelings) and believe that you have the power to create a beautiful life for yourself! Don't ever lose your sense of wonder (like the song says...) and learn to be strong and to recognize "God" in all things. Listen to your heart...
I love what Rabbi David Aaron says: "We are a Masterpiece - a piece of the Master. We're an aspect of His very self. God is the ultimate reality." Check him at: http://www.youtube.com/davidaaron.
"God, adds the apostle John, is love. Love has its source in God. It belongs to His essence, to His very nature..."
"We are all truly connected! We are all different and yet we are all the same." Do your best and be your best, and life will reward you. I wrote in my website www.TeensSelfHelp.com an excerpt from "The Mountain Story" that goes something like this:
Like an "echo" - our life is simply a reflection of our intentions and actions.
If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.
If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life...
Life will give you back everything you have given to it!
Your life is not a coincidence - it's a reflection of you!
