How do we experience God's love to the highest degree?  It isn't as simple as one might think.  First we need to recognize that we have an important role to play in that process.  You and I, whether we realize it or not, we are children of God.  And on one very fine day, we will return to God.  He will come for us and take us back to himself.  It is, a very beautiful reality, being a Christian, and knowing about our faith.  The majority of believers, trust in the truth of Christ and maybe, the rest of us, are still searching, questioning, and rediscovering the Christ!  Halleluiah!  All hope, all trust begins in the great I AM.  No other God's can lead you to eternal life, and eternal life is the destiny of every woman and every man created in the likeness and image of God. There is no denying Christ or his creation.  We can never duplicate the Grand Canyon, nor can we duplicate the flesh and cells, and bodies of human beings.  God himself the creator of all creation did this.  He made us for a purpose.  To love him, to serve him, and to be with him in this life and well into the next.  We are eternal beings.  Our life is a mystery, and yet Christ is living in us in this exact moment.  Yes he takes part in our lives, yes, he sees, hears, and knows everything, our deepest darkest shadows, our happiest thoughts without expressing them verbally, Christ placed all of those emotions in us.  Christ  is the greatest mystery yet to be revealed, yet to be accepted, respected on a level he truly deserves.  Each soul is in battle with the fight against good and evil.  And yet we have the ability to choose light over darkness, and receive life in Christ.
When we receive Christ into our hearts, our souls, our minds, and our spirits, we then become holy, and holy in a sense that we do receive the power of the holy spirit living in us, guiding and directing our souls properly, toward heaven. We self surrender to Christ upholding all truth, because we were given his power to do great things in him, and that power was released through the Holy Spirit living in us, prompting us to do greater things in honor of our faith and love and gratitude toward him.  Are we doing this?  Are we neglecting our own gifts to love and to serve God in this wonderful capacity as faith filled Christians, Catholics, Believers?  If we are we must ask ourselves why that is.  We must contemplate upon the gift we were given in being born.  We also should live our lives disciplined in deep reflection and meditation, so that we can hear our Lord speak to our hearts without the static, without the whispers, without the everyday distractions that set us apart from our creator and his plans for our very lives.  We have to desire putting the pieces of our very lives together within the mosaic of Christ.  Christ centered, we must be!  Adoration comes to mind.  Spending time in the blessed sacrament.  Time in silent prayer with our savior is the ultimate answer to our misery!  Christ is the ultimate healer.  And in order to be completely healed we must enter into an intimate relationship with the great I AM.  If you have done nothing else with your life, but chose to be in a relationship with him, you are by far better off than most people.  Christ is the beginning and the end, the alpha and the omega, the truth and the life.  We are nothing, he is everything.  And when we come to this most important conclusion we can breathe easier, live easier, because we are choosing to breathe and live in HIM.  Let us leave all of our struggles to God.  Let us be mindful and prayerful that we are never in control of anything.  That life is a privilege, and discovering God in our midst, is the greatest gift of all.  Walk toward God today!
