Christ – the way, the truth and the life – is the reconciling process… the process for reconciling God and humanity… reconciling the Source and the living earth. The process for our returning to the path of original intent, the path of our potential.
The prodigal son story is the story of the process of reconciling… reconciling father and prodigal son, God and prodigal humankind. Our current culture is a manifestation of the ways of a yet to be reconciled prodigal people.
Reconciling God and Prodigal Humankind
The reconciling comes about, is systemically manifested by and through the simultaneous/dynamic inner presence of three intentional principles:
Stay awake… Be fruitful… Trust in love.
Stay awake If when we look at a person, at a people, we see other, rather than brother, brothers and sisters, we are not paying attention. Be awake.
Be fruitful Coming from above – from the Creator’s perspective – we are shifting from our current ways of “being productive” to “being fruitful”: living, working, and sustaining our presence on this earth in reciprocally nourishing ways…. like the bees pollinating.
Trust in love Putting our trust in love – the love that makes all things possible – we are shifting from ownership/dominion-over, to potential… realizing potential of each and all.
Stay awake
If when we look at a person, at a people, we see other, rather than brother, brothers and sisters, we are not paying attention. Be awake.
Calling for:
+ Our embracing the truth of our oneness… one Source of each and all…
+ Our living from, our living out, the wholeness of the truth of our intentionality: our having been intentionally created as living human spiritual beings…
+ Through compassion – the compassion of equality – our manifesting the truth of one Source, all else equal.
Be fruitful
Coming from above – from the Creator’s perspective – we are shifting from our current ways of “being productive” to “being fruitful”: living, working, and sustaining our presence on this earth in reciprocally nourishing ways…. like the bees pollinating.
Calling for:
+ Our willfully joining – answering Yes to – our role in the everlasting life intent of the Creator.
+ Our receptivity to and honoring of the intended ways of working of life: life is cyclical in its processes, systemic in its ways of working, and wholistic in its way of organizing.
Trust in love
Putting our trust in love – the love that makes all things possible – we are shifting from ownership/dominion-over, to potential… realizing potential of each and all.
Calling for:
+ Our trusting in the all-inclusive love of the Source entering into the process…
+ Our embracing the truth: if love is not present in the process – in our processes – love will not be present in the outcome…
+ Our becoming intentional, an intentional people of earth… living beatitudic ways… ways working for all children in the world… ways speaking for the everlastingness of living earth.
Reconciling God and Prodigal Humanity Requires:
The exercising of free will conscious conscientious choice on our part…
An authentic Yes to our intentionality… to our being and becoming a vessel for love entering, an instrument for nourishing life… to our uniqueness – our essence, our gift, our spirit manifesting work; to realizing our potential.
An understanding of how we work: the perspective we hold, where we start our thinking from, determines the path we take, what we move towards, what we move away from; and ultimately what we create… bring into existence.
The Epiphany of Today
The epiphany of today is the realization of our significance… our significance in regard to the ongoingness of life, the unfolding creation. The significance present within our intended vesselness for love entering, our intended instrumentality for life; and in the truth, that each and all have within, an essence pattern of intent… a gift to bring, spirit manifesting work… a potential to be realized.
Given this understanding… and trusting in love – the all-inclusive love of the Source, the love that makes all things possible – entering our processes:
+ We have faith in intent… putting our faith in the intended ways of working of ourselves, of life, and of love….
+ We create hope through the establishing of realization processes… processes that work to realize the potential of each and all…
All of which – reconciling and realization of potential intentionally present within – requires our taking up the called work of now: the creating of cultures that work for all children in the world; and the establishing of life nourishing processes – virtue sourced, essence based value adding processes – as humankind’s way of working and living on this earth. Both of which are essential to and required for the ongoingness, for the eternalizing of life on and through the earth. Always remembering – holding in heart and mind – the truth that if love is not present in the process, love will not be present in the outcomes. It is through the all-inclusive love of the Source entering the process that all things become possible. And it is through our saying Yes to intentionality, to called work – creating cultures that work for all children in the world, establishing virtue sourced essence based value adding ways – that we join in the ongoing upward enfolding, unfolding, evolving, eternalizing of life on and through the earth… the work of the Father, the Creator, the Source of each, all, and everything.
