The Vastness Of God.
How can we understand the vastness of God? It cannot be expressed meaningfully in words. It’s not surprising that we have to develop completely new soul perceptions before we can significantly increase our knowledge of God. These perceptions come as our core nature progresses in divine love.
Those who are content with a mere intellectual understanding of God, which of necessity can only be shallow, miss out on the most satisfying journey any of us can experience. True understanding of God comes about by becoming more like God in our basic nature. God is love, and so we must become love – specifically divine love, which is the essence of God’s own soul and incorporates divine consciousness in every drop that we receive.
Once we start receiving this love, we will begin to realise how narrow our view of reality was when it was experienced purely from our material mind’s perspective. We will see clearly that much of our life was shallow and illusory. Great courage is required to accept that the life we’ve invested in so heavily prior to this point was, in many ways, a fabrication created by a somewhat unguided, over-active and over-indulged mind. Along with any anguish we may feel at this stark realisation comes a great freedom and sense of truly knowing ourselves for the first time. Dear reader, no personal criticism is intended in this rather harsh assessment of our human nature – we are what we are, which is the result of millenia of human existence on this planet spent separated from God. What matters is the opportunity given to us to become as one with God in divine nature.
So, will we know the vastness of God through our newly acquired divine perceptions? Yes, our knowledge of God will expand exponentially as we grow in divine love. We’ll have an increasingly close personal relationship with God and receive much in the way of guidance and blessings. We’ll experience the infinite depth and breadth of God’s love. Much will be given that will never be available to those who choose the path of self-realisation rather than God-realisation. The divine journey will never end.
