“If We Walk In the LIGHT as He is in the LIGHT . . .”
(In Other Words, Walking in the LIGHT is a CHOICE)
How big is your fish bowl?
I do not remember when or where I first heard it, but if you move a goldfish from a small fishbowl to a lake it will continue to swim in the same small circle because it has accepted the belief that swimming any farther will result in the discomfort of bumping into the hard glass side. Whether this is truth or myth DOES NOT MATTER!
If we stop trying to figure out whether this is true or just some tall story, we can learn an extremely important truth; BUT if we waste our time swimming in the belief that it is somehow important to debunk the story we will be just as limited in scope as the goldfish; all it takes to break out is accept the possibility that we too are acting just like the goldfish, again, whether truth or myth is immaterial.
You Without Limits keep going straight ahead.
There is a part of the mind that is virtually unlimited …what we call it makes little difference, but if we break through the silly arguments that come out of using the ego driven, goldfish bowl-size capacity of the conscious part of the mind and begin to access the virtually unlimited part of the mind AND BEYOND we can begin to create amazing possibilities.
Out of the mouth of Jesus …and whether you believe he is “merely” a great, albeit fully human teacher or, somehow mysteriously partly or fully “Divine” is of little importance …this based on things that purportedly came through his mouth such as:
“What is the point of calling me ‘Lord’ if you don’t do what I tell you to do?”
“The things you’ve heard me say, I didn’t say them, I AM said them through me.”
“Nothing shall be impossible to anyone who believes enough.”
Be in the light as he was in the light.
When we bring ourselves, just for a moment, to simply consider that it may actually be possible to walk in the very same “LIGHT” in which he said these things (in other words we don’t have to dump all our religious or, on the flip side, all our anti-religious beliefs about who or what Jesus may have been or is right now …and “simply” CHOOSE to walk in the LIGHT as he walked in the LIGHT …and we can).
How to do this is an individual thing, but it starts with accepting it first as a possibility and then having the willingness to be overtaken by the desire to do it and then follow the lead of I AM to get there.
YOU WITHOUT LIMITS …one way of breaking out of goldfish bowl-size thinking into thinking with CREATIVE POWER; let US create together for eternity.
