Time with Reality

.
THIS (moment, in all it's 'imperfectness') is how we spend time with God. We miss Reality if we want things to be any particular way (other than how they are). Without full participation in what IS we 'miss the mark', and remained fragmented, anxious creatures. WITH full engagement we become truly (fully) human.

Mt 12.50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."

How things are IS Reality.

'Your' life isn't about wanting this or that- getting what you desire. It's not about how other's view you, or how you think about yourself, what you do, or how you feel (about anything.) Those are bits and pieces, things in awareness, but not 'your' being. In THIS moment you can find your life. It's fully formed, whole. You won't 'become' more fully you with knowledge, or with actions (works).

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?"
Mt. 6.25

In Christianity 'being saved in Christ' is similar. It implies that those who 'believe in and follow' Christ have already been set free, by way of His physical sacrifice, 'as a ransom for many', on the cross. This argument is limited, missing important spiritual teachings, in favor of offering a more 'tangible' (easily con...

Participation, without conflict

. "Everything is right for me, which is right for you, O Universe. Nothing for me is too early or too late, which comes in due time for you. Everything is fruit to me which your seasons bring, O Nature. From you are all things, in you are all things, to you all things return." (iv.23) Marcus Aurelius
