The world is filled with hungry souls who famish in the very presence of
the bread of life; men die searching for the very God who lives within them. Men
seek for the treasures of the kingdom with yearning hearts and weary feet when
they are all within the immediate grasp of living faith. (Urantiabook,
Teachings of Jesus, 159:3.8).
Well, nice text anyway and
I think so true. Even the greatest atheists feel lost in this large and risky
world. And of course you can cling to a partner, the kids, work, fanatical
hobbies and shout very loudly that you are happy and don't need anything else,
and certainly no faith. But I don't believe them, especially when I read this. Could
You elaborate on this, please?
We look into man's mind, into his heart, into his inner being. And how true is what Christ said. How could it be otherwise? He was closely associated with His God in His earthly life, so except in the Garden of Gethsemane, in His great trial, He was never lonely. He was with God day and night.
And now the human being. Certainly the Western man, and certainly the unbelieving Western man. What a sadness, you might say. Clinging to matter, the body, holidays, reason. But it’s not sad. We in the spirit find it endearing. For the unbelieving man denies his deepest desire to return to the Father-Mother God, to no longer be lonely. But he has sweeped the
carpet under the rug of his conceit. Touching.
But let's not talk about the unbelieving man, there are already blogs
dedicated to this subject. Let's talk
about man longing for God.
Happy man who longs for God and feels this with all his being. This longing is a guarantee of future success, and the proof of the existence of God. Life-Giving Principle, Key to Happiness, Comfort in Anxious Days, Only True Pure and Loving Presence in man. So close, so present, so waiting for man who looks nose, who searches in his inner self and not in outer religions or pastors and gurus. Blessed is the man who knows God within him, who consciously listens to The Silent Voice within. Blessed is the man who is no longer lonely, because he knows God to dwell in his heart. And of course also blessed are all other people, one day they will find out the Great Truth, if not in earthly life, then in life after physical death. That promise is there.
My blessings to you all
