Rocket Fuel For The Soul.
Recently, I made reference to the fact that throughout history, a small number of resolute individuals were able to find their way to a wonderful spiritual awakening through their single-minded quest to experience the living presence of God in their lives. There’s two very interesting observations to be made about what happened to these highly fortunate people.
First, there was no light bulb moment that sparked the search or the outcome. Their search was driven not by mere intellectual curiosity but by a primal desire to know God and thereby themselves. Second, their reward was indeed a great boon to their lives, but they didn’t suddenly become possessed of great minds or the sort of intellectual wisdom that others would admire. The true facts of the matter are much more interesting.
The great change that they experienced happened at a much deeper level than the mind. Their souls were set on fire in a way that could best be described as a pentecostal awakening similar to what the disciples of Jesus experienced following his death. The rocket fuel that fed their souls was God’s divine love given in response to their earnest supplications to know God. This love provided them with the start of a new divine consciousness that was indeed a light bulb moment, but not for the mind – rather, it affected their souls. I’ve spoken elsewhere about what these soul changes involve and how the soul eventually transcends the material mind. While our souls have the potential to change rapidly with the inflowing of this love, our material minds are the last part of us to change and capitulate to God’s will.
If you find my account somewhat disappointing then it indicates that you are on the path of natural love whereby you will eventually perfect your nature, develop your intellect extensively and become exceedingly happy in the future as an inhabitant of the highest spirit heavens.
And yet, merely becoming a perfected man or woman isn’t what God wants for us. In a way, these beings know and acknowledge God, but they don’t experience the depth and breadth of God’s love and thereby become ‘as one’ with our creator. They exemplify the saying, ‘No river can rise higher than its source’. By contrast, those who infill their souls with divine love end up as inhabitants of the celestial kingdom that lies above all other spirit realms. There’s no limit to their journey walking hand-in-hand with God.
None can understand what this means without experiencing it. And therein lies the problem. In one sense, what we don’t know and can’t envisage might as well not exist. A subset of humanity seems to be born with an inner desire to find this ‘unknowable’ state, or in some cases, this desire is triggered at a later stage. We’re told that many won’t ever seek this awakening. God respects our free will and therefore the great day will inevitably come when the predicted biblical separation of the sheep and the goats will occur. This is the second death. The opportunity for the rebirth of our souls in God’s love will pass. Those who live in the celestial kingdom will progress in God’s love for all eternity. Those who inhabit the spirit heavens will continue to enjoy considerable happiness but will realise too late the opportunity they’ve squandered.
This is a difficult message for me to deliver and I caution against any rush to judgement. I was also deeply troubled by the implications. As always, the best course is to pray for guidance and to be shown the truth. If you’ve not already done so, ask to experience divine love, after which your soul will start to inform your mind more clearly on all these issues.
