When a person contemplates and concentrates how God constantly renews creation every day, there's an arousal from the earthly to the heavenly. As it states, "Know today and renew it in your heart that God is the Lord in the heavens above and the earth below. There's nothing else!" and "All before Him are as naught!". That which the world appears like an independent reality is only because God hides and conceals His divine power. But truthfully there's nothing besides Him.
It turns out, that [through contemplation] the person causes that the constriction and concealment, hiding His divine power, moves aside; to reveal His divine power, in various states of revelation.

Comments from the FaceBook posting:
ReplyDeleteRon: I accept the premise, albeit with some reserve - not that it matters, right? haha Sorta Kinda like the saying which goes, you don't need to believe in God, God believes in you.
Choni: I think that the journey is not about God. It's about us. He needs no journey. So in that sense, the fact that He knows about us is not enough. We have to know about Him too! Imagine a parent knows a lot about his/her child via a video camera hidden in the child's room. Is that enough to establish a relationship? No, absolutely not! The child must know his/her parent too!
Ron: hmmmm - gotta mull that over, thanks
Choni: With pleasure Holy Brother!
