What God creates.

If God were to create, how would this happen?

Do you think he would start from the inside or outside?

Starting inside would mean; atom or nucleus and starting from the outside would mean a simultaneous something one sees with the physical eye.

The questions here are interesting especially when applied to oneself. Let’s explore this passage. Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, another scripture described by David says, For it was You (God) who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother's womb.

When someone is knitting a sweater we see the thread being sown before the sweater is completed. It is the same with what David explains to us here. He tells us that God formed or knit his inward man before he gave him a form or a physical body. God creating his inward man is also to say that he created his original self; the self on the inside before the self we see with our five senses.

futhermore, it is fact that everything with a form, was first created from programmed information. This information is defined as divine; meaning originating from God. The question is, how were you created? And how does this information I state, relate to you?

One might quickly jump to the thought of there parents coming together. However, what if I were to tell you, the real essence of who you are, already existed. Another statement that might seem contentious is if your parents did not come together, you would have still been created. This idea is simple, the information you have on the inside is so important that it has to reveal itself, no matter who or what the information is unfolding out of; it has to appear.

The information you have within is first of all created by God and is perfect in everyway. This information is encoded within your authentic (the real you) self. Your authentic self (divine information) scripture explains is created to be like God. Therefore, do not live in mediocrity any longer. Trying to find out about who you truly are is to define the characters of God.

Lastly, divine information is what makes up the real you; you are created to reveal that authentic self!

The Morning Star

You are as bright as the morning stars.

You are unique.

A special kind.

An immaculate blend.

A cure to all illness.

Hope to all the broken.

You are the morning star that invades this universe
with your innate power.

Even if one day you decide you do not want to actualize this beam,
your soul and its divine ability will carry out its radiance.

This light is filled with life; programmed to function according to its encoding.

Full of meaning,

Full of purpose,

Therefore, you must never be released to lack;
this lack brings the awareness submission to the unknown.

However you must always know.
For knowledge is the beginning of freedom.

When you are free, you are then released to occupy your position with
dominion, power and the truth.

Behind understanding the morning star exists.
The presence of the morning star is then all around us when you simply believe in the idea.

He keeps me in….

Oh lord you keep in,
all harms way negates me
Your ultimate desire is that I know you.

Knowing you is knowing myself.
Knowing myself is understanding the
divinity that I am and represent.

You are life and light.
You call me both life and light to this world,
for it written you are the giver of life.

Oh Lord you keep in,
that I may never fail to know.
To know the truth that is called to set man free.

The truth that defines you is the truth that speaks
of mastery of mind and perfection.
It is written that I am, that love and perfection,
since I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

I therefore thank you father for creating me,
as the source of all, as you are the pre-existing source of
all creation.

All the answers that I have been seeking
are within because you are a everlasting light
within my soul, searching; while converting darkness into light.

Father, I thank you that my soul is wrapped up in you and
can only reveal your true beauty. The beauty in me is your beauty,
sincere in faith and true in love.

In your glory I abide and find serenity.
rest for my mind,soul and body. Father I thank you for you keep me in...

The light within/Part 2

The light being turned on is the reality of redemption. Redemption is defined as the act of being taken back from captivity. The death of Jesus of Nazareth on the cross at Calvary was the place we found our redemption.

You see, when we speak of the cross we tend to experience extreme sadness because we take pity on the gruesome sacrifice of Jesus. The very act of feeling pity is where we miss what really happened!

The cross of Calvary was not a place of shame, but a place of victory. The cross represents a place of rejoicing and not a place of sorrow. The illustration of the cross was and still is the picture of our redemption. The cross represents the cleansing of the mind. At the cross all erroneous beliefs were abolished and put under subjection.

The beliefs that once separated us from God, Jesus became sin for. This means he became each erroneous thought so that we would no longer have to face the mind of death. This mind of death is the mind that we received when we ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This mind is also called the carnal mind, which is under the law of sin and death.

This law represents the mind that is still in captivity. The mind under the law resides in a state of religiosity. This religious mindset is why it was so hard to for the Pharisees to believe in Jesus. The Messiah was in front of them for thirty years but they could not see him because of their strong belief system as well as their own proven facts of who, what, where, when and how the Messiah was to come.

The drama of the cross brought us to where we were supposed to be. In fact this is where Adam and Eve were, they lived in a state of constant fellowship and communion with God. Until this oneness was demolished by the act of disobedience. This disobedience awakened man’s false ego to reveal a scar which was fear and doubt. Man than cursed himself and became a tiller (receptor) of the ground. The spiritual principal regarding the receptor is the law of karma. The law of karma explains what we often hear: an eye for an eye; which is also the same meaning as you reap what you sow.

Brothers and sisters the example of the cross happened so that our divinity might be expressed. Today is the day we understand that our false ego self of null effect, has been vanquished. Our new mind and its redemptive nature has taken root.

The Light Within/ Part 1

What is light? Light is what enables you to see. The light within is what enables you to see your true self. If there no light there is darkness. If there no light within man, he is blind. Blindness is ignorance and ignorance is darkness. Jesus said that if the light that is in us is darkness, how great is our darkness (Matthew 6:23).

The bible says, the Spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. Man’s Spirit is the light within man. Within man is the light of God. God brings the light within man by way of his spirit. The spirit of man is also the light or the Spirit of God. Within man is the light that is to shine within darkness. Light within man is his real entity. This light is the means to which Man should live.

In a society we pay so much attention to the exterior of everything that we do not think much about the interior. God created man in his own image (Genesis 1:26-27). The question that comes to mind is: what is the image of God? We recognize the image of God, by way of understanding the light within us.

The scriptures describe the children of God as the light of the world. We are identified as light because our true self is light. This true self is God’s image. The question is, why are we not all living in the light, if the light of God is already within us? We were all in the light as we were with God in the beginning. But our light was turned off when we ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. We partook with Adam and Eve of that tree, and by doing so we disobeyed the commands of God.

How do we turn this light back on, is the next question? This is what we will discuss in our next article.

As I Am

Don’t see me with your eyes,
see me with your spirit
I am not what you see
I am not heavy or skinny, I am me.

I am divine, I have come for this time
To show you who I am, the real me is not what you can see but
what you can perceive.You try to figure me out
but I am not to be examined, I am to be known.

The same me is inside you
look see, we have different shells.
we said you are thin, I am black
we are the same, take another look while
perceiving from within.

Now look, we are the same, you are his representation
as I am his ambassador carrying his name with a different color.
Yet when it is analyzed we are hear for the same purpose
to recognize ourselves in one another.

A different shape but the same name, Christ.
He is eternal as you are eternal, the same yesterday, today and forever.
You can not die because you are not the physical, you are not
too thin, too heavy or too dark.
You are in fact perfect, a perfect being with no real color
except the color of perfection.

You are a spirit being, not to be seen but perceived with
what is called the eye of the beholder; a third eye, that sees
the true mysteries of love.

This love is a force that is able to see things for what they are.
Understanding that within all, substance of proposed reality there is
"Truth" imbedded. This love does not see separation, lack, evil or anything
of the like. It sees beauty as well as thought provoking, serene, happiness.

Therefore perceive, dwell and enjoy the sameness of our image
Let us look at each other as in a mirror and see our one true image
the image of alikeness and of love.

As I am

Poem: Today


Today is a special day, a day of life, of blessing and joy.

Only truth that passes understanding can manifest in this realm we call world.

Today is a day worthy to be honored, a day of life,
excitement and peace. A day when the realization of one’s true self is manifested.

A day of life unending- a day chosen out of the book of life; to be enjoyed

A day of fulfillment, this truly is. The reaching of divinity of mind, body, soul and spirit.
