How do find the Gem inside?

The one who is coming into the world…

Was this statement given to us in the gospel of John an indicator that the New Testament was ushering in a new age because God is no longer out there somewhere, but He has chosen to come live among us?

And because Christ was resurrected,

is God now unfolding and expanding in an even greater abundant way, the Holy Spirit?

And is now the coming of a new age in which the Holy Spirit is making herself made known, a newer revelation?

as we continue to explore and expand our knowledge of the incarnate through scripture, wise scholars and saints, are we now witnessing the spiritual realm opening to a greater degree of influence?

As in the OT some people did hear and encounter God but not most…

Then came Jesus Christ and again some people heard and witnessed His Holy Power of resurrection, others could believe from faith but again most couldn’t grasp it either by choice or because they had not yet been invited (it wasn’t part of Gods plan) if the latter is the case, the God I believe in, an all loving entity, He would not punish those who couldn’t possibly have known. That’s like punishing a child for not learning to read. Perhaps those are the sheep of another fold with another purpose.

And so could it be possible that some people in the OT and in the NT have been given wisdom to the spiritual realm? And were some of them persecuted because they were misunderstood?

And could it be that with the increased knowledge of exorcisms and what we have learned to know about them

along with the mystics and psychics who are revealing things humans can’t explain

is an invisible world coming into our awareness?

Through greater comprehension of consciousness and greater knowledge of the brain and greater experiences with the spiritual realm, is AI providing us evidential information and an expansion of witnesses that the Holy Spirit is manifesting in a different way, a more touchable way, a more accepting way.

Of course that’s exactly something the Creator of the Universe would do.

Giving us clues,

Inviting us deeper

Hiding truth underneath our very eyes 

When we think we have it figured out, there is so much more.

Dr Arthor Brooks said we westerners view life like a painting, building upon the layers of paint to make it better, And even when the painting is complete, we choose to keep painting, adding more. eventually too much paint will begin to destroy the artwork,

He suggests we shift to an eastern way of thinking in which we view life as an emerald slab and we chisel off the surface to uncover the gem that sits inside, by removing what doesn’t belong instead of adding layers, we find the masterpiece that lies beneath.

The truth is inside.

Removes the lies that hide the treasure.

Opposite of ego development 

Because what sits underneath our disenchanting yearning for independence is communion, relationships with others.

What lies deep underneath our deceptive goal of maturity, that leads us on a path of isolation is connection, life together.

Deep in our soul is where we find what every human seeks,

like a gleaming emerald, shaped according to the Sculptor, capturing all the glorious light,

when we remove the excess, we discover love, a simple basic element.

The treasure that everyone is looking for.

When we build our ego and just keep wanting more, we can really mess up a great jewel.

When we notice that at the height of our ego development, life starts losing passion, and purpose, we move off course and sometimes compromise the values we once held close.

When we recognize it’s gone too far and these decisions do not seem to be in alignment with our core values anymore,

That’s the time for awakening

That’s the time to stop what you're doing

That’s the time to look deep and decide a self-evaluation needs to occur 

Seek to truly know who you are

Seek to truly discover what you yearn for

Seek to realign your goals in life with what has been sitting inside but was placed in a quiet room as you chose to do it your way. 

And then when you suffer, choose to open that door that holds your true self, and invite him or her back into the conversation in your head!

Chisel off the wasted material

Take away the wastes of time

Heal the wounds that waited

Forgive the boulders that hold you from progress

What relationships have been covered in unnecessary acrylic

Find that beautiful gem that holds true identity and powerful purpose.

That’s where life becomes ignited, to a whole new realm of knowing 

That’s where freedom to be who you were made to be, exists

That’s where you discover how important you truly are to the whole of humanity 

Worthy

Enough

Valuable

And Loved!

Mysteriously placed in our souls the whole time, from the day of our conception.

Stay Blessed!
