Where do we find the Presence of God? How do we reconnect with God’s Divine Presence? How do we find release from all that seems to hold us back or keep us down in this world we live in? Perhaps these questions are shared by all of us, all of humankind in one way or another. The Course gives us one way to look at these ideas and answer these questions. It considers the answers simple and already known within us. But many of us remain confused and puzzled about what this means and how we find the answers.
They are already within us. They are known to us, though we have long ago forgotten them. More correctly we have covered them up and chosen to believe something else rather than the knowledge that is deep within us. Hence the people of this world have embarked on countless journeys of discovery looking high and low, near and far, backward and forward for the answers to these age old questions. But have we tried letting go of searching where we think we might find the answers and let Spirit show them to us? We have forgotten who we really are. We have forgotten the connection we have with the Divine. We have blocked, ignored, or drowned out the Voice for God that calls to us, reminding us of who we are and beckoning us back to the awareness of who we really are.
God sees and holds the truth of our holiness. God sees that we have separated our awareness of who we are from that holiness and so holds that Divinity for us. God holds our Oneness with each other, God, and all of creation waiting for us to remember who we really are and join again in the awareness of that holy Communication.
The path God has provided for us to return to this awareness is simply in our relationships. The essence of our holiness is there to be seen in each other, and so to be seen in us. Each one that we encounter is the One in that moment who is there for us to see their holiness in them and in turn find it revealed in us. As our holiness is seen and revealed, we are One with each other in this world as we are in Spirit.
It doesn’t matter what the situation, or where we are, or what anyone else says or does. It only matters that we are there in that moment willing to see Divine Presence in that moment and letting Divine Presence be revealed to us. They have come, those who are our saviors, ready to be seen as they really are, One and Divine. In the revealing of Divinity in each of us and the both of us, we see God’s Presence radiating peace, love, and joy of a powerful gentleness we have never felt, yet remember from a far and distant memory. Is it too much to ask a little trust that we are as God created us? That little bit of trust will open wide the doors within us that blocked the awareness of the Divine Oneness within each of us and all of us. They have come to reveal to us who we really are. And we see who they really are as well. Here are all our questions answered.
