The challenge and burden of every individual is to determine who they are: not an easy thing to do. However, we do not live in a vacuum. Each of us belongs to several different “groups”, be it in the work place, home, or church. Whatever entity you are spending some of your valuable time with, you additionally need to ask yourself (of that group), who are we?

From time to time it seems as though our world is infected by some sort of virus- a madness bacteria or virus. Dean Radi called such crazy world wide destructive thinking as “mass mind infection“. And there is no one who can escape being tainted with such. One would hope that the church could somehow lead the way; however, that’s not been the case historically.

How can there be unity in diversity? Our shrinking world is making us aware of such great differences that exist and it appears that a voice of unity is impossible to detect. We are currently being faced by two opposite forces (what’s new?) that will lead us into a CRASH or will catapult us into a major LEAP in knowing (consciousness) which is what Jesus called the Kingdom of God! Christian history has pitted the forces of God and Jesus, while generically it’s been called Light vs. Dark. Continue reading ‘Voice Of Unity’
The title above may sound too difficult, but what you’re about to read is far from that.

Is this as good as it gets, the way life is supposed to be, of is there another way to live? Is it possible to protect yourself and yet not live in denial? My answer is yes, and why aren’t we?

Who was this man Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)? I see him much like our modern day heretics. In fact all truth begins originally as heresy. The TRUTH Himself (Jesus, the Christ) was hung on a cross and killed for His ideas that were basically ahead of the times. Remember, the scout usually took the first arrows. May we pray for more people to have the courage to stand alone- in love for that which they feel is truth. And may we not join in the chorus and choir seeking their demise.

Awaken Giant Within
That giant would be God, Allah, Yahweh, Creator of the universe!
Awaken giant, awaken soul, awaken to the Spirit that is within all of us. ALL! Annamarie Schimmel said, “Once the journey to God is finished, the infinite journey in God begins.” On this side of our releasing our physical bodies, the journey is never finsihed and unfortuantely, it’s seldom seriously begun by most. The Buddha gets credit for putting it this way, “All things arise and pass away, but the awakend awake forever.” Jesus simply said, “Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand.” How do we relate to this challenges in our lives, or do we?
