Right Where You Are

Check out the cool dude from 1974! Michael, please tell me those are not white jeans!

Thought for Today: How can we expect to realize God in the emptiness of space if we have refused to see God in those we meet? And how can we find God in those we meet and in the events that transpire around us unless we first discovered God at the center of our own being? We cannot.

The starting point is at the center of our own being. When we awaken to the Divine within us, It will reach out and embrace everything around us, and we will discover the same Presence in people and in events and in all nature.

This is the secret that Jesus discovered. This is why he was able to speak as no other person ever spoke. This is why he was able to perform the miracles of love and healing, and in so doing prove a fact so simple, so fundatmental, but so powerful that people stand in awe before it--the simple fact that God is right where you are.

We are the clay, and thou our potter; and we are all the work of thy hand.--Isaiah 64:8
