In meditating today I came to a new thought. Didn't much like it at first as it contradicts one of my older thoughts and we do humans have never been big supporters of change.
But I looked and looked at it and could not find a way to refute it.
I've thought for years that we are creators created in the image of God who is our creator. I was wro...wrou...
You know that word the means not Right! Ok. I can say it. Just give me a moment.
I ...was....wrong.
There! I've said it and we shall never speak of this again. LOL
So anyway, it came to me that God created and it was One creation. The creation encompassed all things in all times in all ways.
What we do is not to create, but to see, to glimpse or maybe just perceive different parts of his creation at what are for us different times. I guess it's like the string theory the scientists tells us about. Multiple universes and the like.
When we pray in faith we can see things differently, different outcomes which we sometimes see as amazing or even divine. Which they are.
But it's not God's creation that has changed, but our seeing of his creation that has expanded.
God and his creation is perfect, complete, whole and holy. Our perception is not. When we see something different we think it's a WOW moment. It is, but only for us. God and his creation have not changed. We have changed to enable us to see more of what is really there in the light that God created.
Ok, done popping off.
Just my thoughts.

Very profound philosophy John.
ReplyDeleteBut I do think God has gifted mankind with creativity - the world would be a very dull place with that, and the wheel would not have been invented.
In answer to prayer God not only opens our eyes to see the truth but engages in spiritual warfare on our behalf to defeat the forces of darkness working against us.
I'd have to disagree here Amrita. Darkness is not the opposite of Light. It's the absence of Light.
ReplyDeleteWhen the light is on the darkness does not flee. It's simply shown to not exist at all. The shadows are just that "shadows".
God has no opposition. He is The Creator I think and none can be equal or even close to him.
