Everything is borrowed from God.
How does God want us to use his gifts?
The man or women of humility knows
that he or she is only channeling powers.
They do not belong to us. They are borrowed
from God.
in reality we do not exist as individuals it is God who manifest thru us.
if the my, me, mine does not exist anymore there is nothing to upset us.
because only god is there. the way to practice humility is to relate everything to God
Of ourselves we can accomplish nothing. God is they doer. Pride is a cover up
for our insecurities.
a writer of a novel gives all the characters life he becomes those characters.
god creates us and he wants us to fulfill his plot. the difference is the novelist has full control.
but god makes it interesting by letting us do our thing.
we are like actors and actresses but the cosmic director says you go act now improvise. But he gives us clues; cosmic hints that we can follow to aid us in our lines.
there is are no lines no plot no script but there is a prompter. like a man below the stage who promts actors to say the right lines. god gives us a prompter which is the voice of conscience. but if the house is noisy by oversensitivity fears and anxiety, physical desires, defensive and other wrong attitudes,we are unable then to listen to the voice of conscience. by calmness we are more able to hear the voice of conscience that is why we meditate. We need to have peace and calm in the house so we listen to the voice of God within. The divine voice within us will help us. That voice becomes very faint or dim because we have not listened to it for one or more lives.
