      If the Creator is the only force active in the universe then I can come to feel that truth by emptying my mind of the concept that the Creator is only present in my life when positive experiences occur. By getting rid of my narrow preconceived notion about what the Creator is and expanding it to include every aspect of my experience I can come to realize that the Creator uses both positive and negative events in my life as a means to draw me closer to him. If The Creator’s true intent was to create a creature and fill it with unbounded delight then the question becomes, “In what way is this present experience a part of the Creator’s master plan?” Rather than resisting these painful events and viewing them as some form of punishment, I can look into them with a sense of curiosity and attempt to understand the Creator’s motivation behind why he would cause a particularly challenging event to unfold in my life. Perhaps he realizes I have become complacent with my present set of circumstances which have stunted my growth and development towards the ultimate goal. Through the creation of discomfort or some new found sense of dissatisfaction it would force me to look for something sufficient to gratify that empty space. The Creator skillfully uses both hands to draw me nearer to him. With one hand he creates a demand within my heart and with the other he graciously supplies that demand.

      Thanking about how IM the creation, and that every piece of my matter is a part of the one, the us the creator is inside me, and I am not separated from it

      A sense of safety; knowing we are all nestled somewhere safely within Him.

      It would feel like everything is connected and coordinated in an often incomprehensible way.

      It would be like vanishing. Surrendering the sense of self to the truth that there is no self. There is only a receiver part of the upper force.

      Well if there is truly “None else besides Him,” then He is Sovereign and has absolute control over everything. I am utterly incapable of making myself feel, or think, or do anything, for He is the One who feels through me, thinks through me, and acts through me. I can only witness His power when it overtakes me; and if I feel He is absent, I must know that this is but delusion, for He is always present and it my part only to pray to Him to help me to feel His Divine Presence.
