If you seek him, he will be found. 1 Chronicles, 28:9
As we know from the gift of science and the work of Galileo, the earth is not the center of the universe. Given that revelation, we should be led to the realization that “I’m really not the center of the universe” either. However, most of us see the world from an “I” perspective or the “false self”. But seeing through this lens, we don’t see the world as it really is. We see it inside out, upside down, or not at all. This is a serious situation that has existed since Adam and Eve. It’s what might be called the human predicament or the human condition.
It’s the way we are, but not the way things really are. This shaking up of our idea of God, of Jesus Christ, of the church, of the spiritual journey, of ourselves – the shattering of our ideas – is the true beginning of the real spiritual journey, which is not about something but a journey, a way. As Jesus said it is the way to nowhere. Many do not want to go that way because it’s the path into the unknown. But the unknown is where God actually is.
The Lord, your God, went ahead of you on your journey to show you the way you should go.
Deuteronomy 1:32
Thank you, Lord, for being with me in the cloud of unknowing where I rest in your Presence.
