After reading the article “The Conversation” Part 3, by Minister Alain Dagba.
I have concluded such wonderful thoughts. I have come to the realization that what I have been calling success is not success at all.
Before reading this article, I was defining success as direct contact with a goal or the attainment of a heartfelt goal. It was as if success was an actual attribute.
When success, instead is the direct result of perfection; when relating to the ideal man. The ideal man is the remaining of absolute consciousness. This consciousness is the mind or mindset of the creator; God.
Material manifestation is absolute and conclusive after a goal has been attained. However, as mentioned in the article these goals for some include: marriage, career, and success are important nevertheless they are not eternal. Eternal means what never changes. Eternal is that, that is the same yesterday and today. These goals are only temporary. Once attained they leave one with the question of “now what?”
The ultimate goal should be to awaken into Christ. To be awakened is to realize Christ; the true nature within all men. Within Christ is the foundation of life, redemption. This life is substance of reality, which is eternal. This life is eternal for the reason that the truth it relies upon is continually unfolding. This truth unfolds to become more practical.
Within this awakening man must also understand that they are not the portrait, in the mirror in front of them. The process of actualizing concludes that sickness, illness poverty, lack of any kind is not a definition of who they are ideally. Who you are ideally is eternal; you are in fact the same yesterday, today and forever. You are in fact a spirit being manifesting in a temporary home called your body. Your image and likeness is of greatness, therefore all that becomes you is of greatness as well.
Wow! All you need to do is understand this fully. Once this is complete you will find all that pertains to life. This is a promise from the word of life which says “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue, 2 Peter 1:3”.
Observe to embrace your innate nature today, which is Christ.
