God is a Spirit
And we are souls
Seeds of the Spirit
St. John 4:24
“God is a Spirit…”
God is a Spirit
And we are souls
Seeds of the Spirit
St. John 4:24
“God is a Spirit…”
As children of God
We are placed into
The hands of the world
And when we come
Into the world
We are not known
The beliefs of our family
And our culture
Shape who we become
But beneath
What shapes us
We are all
Children of God
And we will become him
Like Christ did
Or we will become
Like the world
How the world
Perceives us
Is not who we are
I John 4:4
“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”
St. John 4:24
“God is a Spirit…”
Art: The Shadow of Death by William Holman Hunt
The epitome of
Divinity in humanity
He humbled himself
To become like us
Now he waits patiently
For us to grow up
And become like him
He is the divinity
Who embraces
All humanity
All his children
Art: Formation of Eve by Ed Suominen
And all that God made was good
Except it was not good that man be alone
So God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man
And took from him a rib
And fashioned from that rib a woman
How long did that take
To prepare a wife for his creation
How long was his creation asleep
He slept until the woman
Was brought to him
To be his wife
Then everything was good
It is like Christ and his bride
That which has been prepared for him
A house in which all his children live
The mother of all living
Just like we, as individuals,
Add character to this life
And certainly would not want to be a bunch of clones
Walking around looking at ourselves
When we have the power to manifest God
And therefore see him
In all the different people he is
How glorious and diverse his ways
Of creating a special place
For each of us
An intimate relationship
With each one of us
Capable of seeing he is the only one
And capable of knowing
This is all for us
What beautiful children
God has given me
And we love them all the same
Equally
How can we feel
What Christ felt
And likewise
How can he feel what we feel
To be human is to feel
To share emotions, thoughts, feelings
He shared this rapture with us
Of becoming one with God
Of becoming God
He wanted us to share that
And become God with him
To be there where he is
With him in his glory
We are his glory
His children
Until we become one with God,
As Christ,
We cannot behold his glory
He wants us to see that glory
See yourself—see Christ
See his glory in all mankind
When you see him
You become him
That is the glory
St. John 17:24
“Father I will that they also whom thou hast given me be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory, which thou has given me; for thou loved me before the foundation of the world.”
