Blind Faith?
I for one am not capable of blind faith. I was born with "WHY" on the inside of my forehead. I have great capabilities with proper understanding but I am not willing to jump off a cliff without a 100% guarantee of survival. I cannot believe in someone else's understanding of God so I have spent the last fifty-nine years of my life refining my understanding of God in an effort to surrender entirely.
I was unable to turn my life over to the God of my early understanding as the God I was taught was an evil taskmaster. I knew I could never live up to the demands of God. Even now I cannot understand how people could believe that God would do the things they blamed him for in the Old Testament of the Bible. When God led me to my current understanding through Metaphysics, the Bible made perfect sense to me. In the beginning, God made. God set laws that make the universe so now God just let's!
Most of the Bible is written in metaphors describing the war between human nature and spiritual nature; the war between the Ego and Soul. It was finally Jesus that brought the world the true nature of God. My favorite understanding of God is in Emmet Fox's seven aspects of God; Life, Truth, Love, Intelligence, Soul, Spirit and Principal. With these seven aspects and the knowledge that God is GRACE I have all the understanding I need to let God have all my life.
In my old life God was behind me sweeping and mopping up the disasters of my life that I ran on my own. I now have God as a scout in my life running ahead of me and informing in my meditation of what I can expect. I also know that all in God's universe is perfect and that all in my life is magic and opportunity, knowing that no evil can befall me. It's easy to remember...
Your Life is PERFECT!
