If You Were God, What Would You Do

Mankind has a tendency to place judgments upon God. These judgments are based on our perceptions of how we think God behaves. We hold a composite view of God based on the teachings of others, generally using the Bible as our guide. We often superimpose our motivations on God believing, as He created us, so is He. What if our preconceived notions about God are flawed and God is actually very different from the God of our perceptions?

We cannot simply know God as He truly is as He is beyond our comprehension. We must seek to gain knowledge about Him directly from Him. We must let go of our former beliefs and be open to God's revelations about Himself. God chooses for us to know Him and to develop a personal relationship with Him. Only by more fully understanding Him and His motivations, can we truly advance in our spiritual quest to know God.

God tells us He is only love and that love is all there is. We find this difficult to understand, seeing life filled with so many unloving acts and conditions. It is not until we look at life from God's perspective, or as much as we can, that we can even begin to understand that love is really all there is.

When first we think a circumstance tragic, from God's perspective, we see it is an invaluable learning tool sent to us specifically for the advancement of our souls. We see that God has given each of us free will to fully explore our creative potential and to experience life to the fullest. It is from bad that we fully know good, from hate that we fully know love and from selflessness that we can fully know ourselves as God intends.

About the Author

The Scribe Described

This scribe did not intend to be, yet was somehow chosen. Destiny played its part, shifting me to we, from I to all. I have always had a great curiosity about God and had studied much on the subject, but my primary focus was my career. Learning about God took on a new twist when God inspired me to write the words heard.

"Hearing" is not how the words actually come, for it is more of a "knowing." When the mind is quieted, the emptiness is filled with inspired knowledge.

I write as and when instructed, either with pen or keyboard. The vehicle does not matter, but the content is to be kept sacred. Always, I understand that I must keep the sanctity of the gift given. Regardless of my own judgments about the content, I understood that the content is not about or for me. The content is to be presented as received, for the benefit of those seeking to have their questions answered.

I cannot profess to be specially qualified, except that I am able to simply bring the words received to print. My credentials really do not offer credence to the work, except that they are verifiable and do demonstrate the normality of my life. I do hold degrees in accounting and education and have thirty years business experience.
