“You see, John, the rules are really quite simple.The Creator made everything and all of us. We, also,are creators. We are endowed with many of the qualities of the Creator, but most times,these qualities are so deeply buried that they’re hardly ever recognized or used.”
“Yes, Lord and Master, please continue. Your humble servant listens.”
He ignored my mocking attitude and continued. “Worry is a form of directed energy,John. Worry removes your focus from everything else and directs it in a concentrated manner on that which you fear. Worry and fear then join to bring into your existence the very thing which you feared.”
“So, how do I stop worrying?Tell me that!”
“You stop worrying when you understand the universal laws that make things work.One of those laws says that whatever you see in your mind—good or bad—if you believe it, it will come to pass. Creation starts in your mind with your thoughts and imagination. Cause-and-effect world, John. Use insight and you’ll see right. What you sow, you shall reap. As you think and believe, so it becomes.”
“Good sayings, Gideon. I know most of those things but how do I use that knowledge in a practical way? How do I use it to improve my present situation?”
“By centering yourself and looking within you. This is an inside job, you see. The answers are all within you.Not outside, not in someone else and not even in the one you call
God.”
That puzzled me for a second. “I thought that God could do everything. Why wouldn’t He have the answers? More important, why wouldn’t He give us some of those answers, especially when we pray to Him so earnestly?”
“Because you don’t understand God and the methods He gave us for finding answers. We don’t have to beg or plead. We only have to relax and become quiet and to believe in ourselves and the abilities inherent in us. Then we’d begin to receive answers in the form of ideas. We must believe and trust the process.God doesn’t withhold our good from us. However, He does want us to learn by discovering the process. Often we’re just unable to see that we already have—or can have—what we want.”
This discussion set me to thinking about God. Humanity does seem to have so many gods. The Muslims have one,the Christians another, the Jews yet another and on and on. Some have more than one. Various religions locate their gods in places such as temples, mountains, streams and skies. Legends speak of greater and lesser gods.
