GOD’S GIFT --- ASK AND RECEIVE

(by Dlanorrenrag*)

MYSTERY OF EXISTENCE:
Insofar as our experiences of existence are made mysterious by their incompleteness, uncertainty, and tail-chasing ambiguity, Who, or What, is the unifying, originating, ongoing, complete, uncertain, and unambiguous Source of such mystery?

Well, insofar as all our mortal, empirical efforts function in respect of the mystery, it is, by that which defines us, beyond us to solve it (empirically, that is).

EMPATHETIC ENHANCEMENT:
Whatever the Source, we cannot empirically measure, evidence, prove, predict, or control it. Yet, all that we experience cries out to our most fundamental intuition that the source exists.

Only by intuitive empathy, not empiricism, do we relate to it. I believe we can, and do, relate to the Source --- connectively, directly, intuitively, empathetically.

Using the power of The Word, reasoning together, we can enhance experiences of our interconnecting Source of Empathy.

To the extent we shut our minds away from The Word, we forfeit opportunity it offers for our enhancement.

MEAN IT WHEN YOU ASK:
There is more to our lives than our daily bread. There is more to our lives than our empiricism. We need also a connecting experience of meaningful empathy.

To receive such connection, WE HAVE ONLY TO ASK --- provided only that we mean what we ask. Our asking must originate from within --- that is, from that which constitutes our most authentic essence.

DEGREES OF FREEDOM AMONG ELOHIM:
We are holographic, yet incomplete, in our perspectives of God. As individual expressions among Elohim, we express some of God’s freedom, albeit, confined within such mathematical parameters as God synchronizes.

Such parameters are requisite for affording degrees of freedom among all of Elohim. Each of us may express freedom, but only within degrees and limits.

Because we can never care as much as God, we can never perfectly avoid sin. But, insofar as we express and confess our freedom in empathetic, receptive appreciation of holistic God, we may benefit in having our sins washed away. And, we may please God --- as well as that perspective of God which is in each of us.

SOUL, SIN AND GRACE:
As for whether any single “perspective of soul” is continuously changing, discretely alternating, endlessly recycling, eternally reincarnating, or synchronously translating --- who can say?

Yet, we can intuit a Source of connecting empathy. For mortal purposes, that seems basis enough for “soul” (referring to that which is most essentially empathetic to moral meaningfulness).

In respect of your very essence, or soul, find how to express that which you love. There, like Shadow, will follow the Source of moral empathy.

It is not merely in what we do that we “sin,” but in that which we do in indifference and disrespect of how “God” may care. Other animals and beings also may sin, but only insofar as, at some level, they appreciate, yet disrespect, the Source of Connecting Empathy.

One without “soul” may not very well sin. One with soul may not avoid sin, yet may find grace, by reaching out to appreciate and receive the grace of God.

Were we good enough, morally, we might live each day as if we should have to account for it, forever. But, because we are only mortal, we dare not attempt to account for any day of our lives, except upon accepting the grace of God.

At some level, intuiting God, it is necessary that we express or confess our intuition and appreciation of God, regardless of our clarity of expression, verbiage or labeling. Otherwise, as moral empaths, we cannot be advanced towards that which we love.

PERSONAL RESPONSIBIBLITY:
We need not fixate upon some picture, icon, or label for “God.” We need only be receptive to the connecting basis for Empathy (which is God).

Receptivity is personal --- direct to God. Receptivity may become confused, when we surrender present, personal responsibility to an intervening interpretation or will of some mortal hologram or messenger, purporting to be holistic God.

As we mature, we need to become receptive to direct intuition of the Connecting Source Of All Empathy. We must not be deceived by mere empiricism. Our appreciation of the Source may be enhanced, in studies and discussions with others. But, discussions with others must never substitute for respect for the Source In Itself.

To mature in directly sensing God’s gift, each of us must mature to take direct responsibility for our own spiritual, personal relationship with God.
