FINDING FAITH - 5

Let’s come back to the questions that we started with. Maybe we do have some answers that will help:

What is God? What isn’t God? God is All There Is. Everything is God is form and in action.

What does God have to do with you? God is the life in you, the intelligence of your bones, your cells. You are that. You are not God - but God is you, and more than you. God is All That Is, and God is certainly all that you are.

What can you do with that? You can become more of what God is, that’s what you can do. This power is in you - it IS you. You can use more of It that you are doing right now. The creative ability in you is your Spirit. The urge you have, the need to build, to grow, to expand your activity - that is God in you calling for a miracle.

Does God speak to us? Yes, in many ways - in our dreams, though the people around us, through the things we notice every day. You have an urge to go somewhere. There, you notice something. You noticed because of an inner program that directed your attention. That was God speaking to you. Someone told you the same thing five times. The fifth time you paid attention, because God in you directed your attention.

Does this God have real personality? Oh, you bet! For one thing God has YOUR personality, and about 5 or 6 billion other personalities - and that’s just the ones currently living. God is infinite personality, all personality, any personality. There is no limit - it is open-ended.

So what can you do? First, stop looking away from yourself. Look at the qualities of God that lie in you, and bring them out to play. Stop waiting for Jesus to come back, and look to develop the Christ that is your fullest potential. Remember, the name of Christ is Em-man-u-el (In man is God). The Christ means the full and total realization of the Spirit of God within you. When the Christ comes down to earth, it means you have taken your Spiritual consciousness, and brought it into your physical life.

Truly, the kingdom is within you.
