What To Do About World War Conflicts?

Author: Galoo

Butterflies Are FreeAs people of the world mourn and fear in the aftermath of terror activities, let us not be consumed with things of the world, but of the Spirit.

As seekers of spiritual truth, one’s responsibility to his “neighbor” – friendly neighbor and enemy neighbor, near neighbor and far away neighbor – is to realize the presence of God as being universal.

Think of the millions of people who pray to God to overcome their enemy. Who is the enemy? To those on the other side, we are. Do we think of ourselves as an enemy? No. We think of ourselves as good.

Finding Our True Spiritual Identity

Author: Galoo

Butterflies Are FreeEach of us has in the past, or will in the future, stare up at the stars and wonder where we came from. History books are full of records of people searching for their “roots”. Who are we anyway?

Because the answer has been hidden through generations of time, people have failed to recognize it. Doctrine has conditioned our minds into believing someone else’s concept of the beginning of existence and of Life itself. The Biblical scholars want us to believe we came from dust. The scientific community would like us to believe we evolved from apes. Some paranormals should have us believe we came from aliens.

Spiritual Growth In The Traditional Church

Author: Galoo

Butterflies Are FreeFlipping the channels on television one evening brought my husband and me to a Christian station where we paused the remote. By doing so, we heard a “Christian” leader make mention that people of the Buddhist faith would not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

In discovering the Truth that Jesus came to enlighten humanity to the “kingdom of heaven is within” and that “God is no respecter of persons”, one can’t help but wonder how the Christian sect can ostracize those different from themselves? Does not the Bible indicate we are ALL the “sons of Gods, joint heirs with Christ”?

The Message Of Invisible Spiritual “Truth”

Author: Galoo

Butterflies Are FreeAs a child were you ever fascinated with “invisible” ink where you could write a message to a friend and then have the message “disappear” so no one else was able to read it?

The illusion of “magic” has fascinated us all. It is only in the “mystery” of it – in the unknowing. And, just like the invisible message that lies under the invisible ink, we have a yearning to know what other things are being kept from us. Human nature is inquisitive. Human nature wants to know what it’s missing.

Are We Feeding Our Neighbors Spiritual Meat?

Author: Galoo

Butterflies are FreeGood neighbor? Bad neighbor? Our neighbor on the other side of the fence or down the street? Our neighbor in the next continent? What constitutes a neighbor? And what do we feed him?

We can do more for others by simply recognizing their true identity as spiritual than to give them physical items that deplete. We can recognize that God meets ALL needs, not only ours because we happen to be a good human or that we go to church on Sunday. God is “of purer eyes than to behold iniquity” so why do we think God favors us?

Unlocking Spiritual Truth With Practice

Author: Galoo

butterfly3We all have it buried within the depths of our being. We catch glimpses of it at odd moments, not recognizing what it is. We feel there is something more in life that we’re missing. We ponder a profound thought to grasp its inner meaning. We wonder about the nature of deep spiritual things. Sound familiar?

The reason Truth eludes us is we have not opened ourselves up to receive it on a continuing basis. It is a constant awareness. It is our very life itself!

Truth is like mathematics. . . . .
