Demonstrate God

"God appears on earth as individual you and me, and as we step aside, we begin to see God shining through."

Joel Goldsmith
Practicing the Presence
,
Chapter
Two

“What are we seeking?....There is no such thing as God and.”  If ever there were an Infinite Way “to do” list, you will find it in this chapter. Joel writes, “nothing is more important than this point: Are we seeking a realization of God, or are we trying to reach God in order to get something through God?” In this chapter of the month, we find an overview of spiritual study as a universal shared experience. Most are seeking some good for themselves. As the light touches consciousness however, a message dawns: “I seek nothing but Thee.”  Enjoy this month’s profound message: “Meeting God Face to face is the end of the road—there is nothing more to be desired.”

"Meditation is an invitation for God to speak to us or to make Himself known to us; it is not an attempt to reach God, since God is omnipresent. The Presence already is."
