IRMA and other hurricanes

Re. HURRICANES
The technical aspect that I struggle to convey is that the APPLICATION of our mountain-moving (and by extrapolation, hurricane-moving) is to go immediately into the Spiritual realm (of God) and stay there. No peeking! I don’t mean to be flippant about such a huge issue. I mean to be huge about it!

No hurtful memory to forget

Still agonizing over a long-term
Hurt that won’t recede?
I – JUST NOW – had
A miraculous breakthrough!
I was trying to give one over to God –
A former treatment method – and
IT DIDN’T WORK !!!
I COULDN’T FINISH IT !!!
I couldn’t treat it from
The standpoint of being
A separate entity from God.
Him as me, now I see
I don’t have a devastating
Hurtful memory to forget.

Come far enough?

Have you come far enough
Spiritually to REAL-IZE
God actually is the answer
To all your problems?
How can you know it
Without spiritual awareness?
Good question, good answer:
If you’re even reading this
It’s in there: open your
Thought to God and see.

God is all. More modern way = God is One

I believe that God is All. The more modern way to say that is God is One. He is at once within us and in another realm. We can experience healings in our lives by becoming more and more aware of Him, His Son, His kingdom, His love, His omnipresence, omnipotence and omniscience. People so often just don’t go far enough or for long enough.

Oneness

I have clung to the concept of Oneness since very early childhood and it’s so much a part of me that I’m at a loss to describe it.
Even though I grew up desperately needing and receiving an awareness of God’s (and therefore my) oneness, I have also enjoyed periods of further enlightenment. A case in point is the realization that God’s own Self-description, I AM, taken in conjunction with the understanding that He is all leads the astute student to unravel the fact that “I Am.” is a complete sentence, needing no complement. Everywhere we look – within and without – we see God, unqualified and perfect.
When we say “God is Love” we limit God. When we say “God is all” we limit God. When we say “I AM.”, we’ve said it all because we’re referring to the infinitude of ONE.
