What does it Mean to Have a “Personal” Relationship with God/Goddess? Part II
This is Part II of a four part blog. Part III will be posted on 04/23/07.
So, if you want a real relationship with God/Goddess, you must develop one on your own by talking to God/Goddess daily—moment to moment even. And when I say here, “talk to God/Goddess,” I mean just that.
You actually talk to God/Goddess as you would to a real friend or a loved one. In time you learn how to communicate—that is, to be heard and to really listen. In time you really develop an ongoing, enriching conversation and interaction, albeit somewhat different than the kind you would have with another person. [In a future blog post I will say more about the kind of relationship you can develop.]
You’ll be amazed to discover what you learn about your Self and the world you live in when you develop a personal relationship with God/Goddess. By being in constant communion with God/Goddess, the most incredible gift you receive is the ability to see everyone and everything through the eyes and heart of God/Goddess.
This way of seeing is a completely different experience from your common way of perceiving things which is one that is limited by the narrow-minded filters and fears of your belief systems. Having this direct relationship opens you up to a whole new world. You get to see everything in a totally new light.
As well, by developing this personal relationship you become like God/Goddess. You become more and more fashioned in His/Her Image. You rise above your human, imperfect emotions, identifications and interpretations and instead see clearly and with the eyes of Love. You learn to accept and appreciate it all.
As well, rather than just relying on yourself to change or get things done in your life, you now begin to allow His/Her strength and Love to flow through you and that is when miracles can and do happen in your life. You learn that you are never alone and that together with God/Goddess everything is possible. You come to understand that on your own so little is really possible, but in partnership with God/Goddess all things are possible.
