Who Touched Me?

Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seeing that you are the deep object of my affection, let us become deeply involved in much contemplation of INTENTION of relationship. It is indeed to be the touchstone or point of contact for your/my faith.....remember the promise, "if two of you agree as [ONE] touching"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Was reading Charles' post on "intention"and this all too familiar passage seemed to pop for me with a greater clarity: "If two of you agree as TOUCHING.." [ and I very much appreciate the point that Charles was making about agreeing as One, too]

What is the spiritual significance of 'touching'?

But I began to think about the many passages that speak about how Jesus touched someone and in every case it brought about life changing experiences for the one touched. And, also, how he made a big deal about how someone in the throng touched him.

What kind of touching was Jesus actually doing? Was he just touching someones flesh or was something else going on? He said, "That if two of you agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

We have talked about on here before how that the void is not really 'void' or a vacuum but is a plenum of all possibility and how God moved or vibrated upon the face of this deep to create. This is the place of everything and nothing or it is a place of all possibilities and potentials prior to form.

If faith is the substance of things hoped for, then faith is the ability to reach into the void and call forth those things that are not as though they were.

When two can agree they are, in fact, God once again vibrating over his deep in creative movment, don't you think?

I guess we haven't done as much real touching as we give claim to. We all have had 'what' down pretty good, but spirit is teaching us 'how', Now.

Blessings and love,
Karen

When I am asked to pray for anyone, all I can ever do is speak to their Christ to arise, "Let God arise and his enemies be scattered." Now God really has no enemies, in the sense that there could possibly be anything that could oppose the Omnipotent, but when someones God power or Essence is invested wrongfully it can create havoc in their lives. We are very powerful beings. But like any adolescent, he often does not use his energy and abilities wisely until a little more maturing. I still believe in the growing principle along with the re-membering one.

I think the growing principle locks in the re-membering one. We have to be able to 'hold that note' to break the dark glass....sustain the higher vibration.

I have known a lot of people that can sing this song beautifully, but they aren't able to hold the high notes for long. I have some friends that sang beautifully at one time but have hung up their harps.....so it is,

By His Grace Only,
Karen

Terrestial Terminal

I think many people are afraid of showing any humanity. They have been taught how bad it is or how illusionary it is. And we hear it over and over. How bad thought is, how incapable of expressions of love we are. This makes us more unreal than real, imo. I can't see the world ever accepting this non-loving, non-living gospel.

We are meant to live LIFE more abundantly. We are to have good works - eeks, anathema, 'Works' you say? That dirty word?

People who are happy, approachable, fun and joyous and yes, loving are a lot more aligned with what God is than people who can't translate their heavens into real live earth experiences. "The heavens declare his glory, and the firmament showeth it", tells me that their needs to be some showing of it as well. It involves more than just declaring.

We are the terrestial terminal for the Divine's experience of himself. The Divine does not experience ItSelf except through its creation. Spirit just Is. But for it to experience Love, it must be lov-ing through a means to do so. And we are That - we become the EX-Pressed image of that reality when we are loving or any other action.

And I like the twin flame analogy too, Charles. I helped David Hulse put his little booklet together on "Starmates, Soulmates, and Twin Flames" which was just a way to express the different kinds of relationships people may have and the twin flames was a glorious way, I think, to show how two people can come together and burn as one for the good of all. - Those who have worked out all those 'soul' issues and can now live out of a higher purpose than their 'own stuff'. A light that serves as a mirror for others to see themselves in, was a wonderful thought too, which is what I think you were saying.

Joy to your world,
Karen


I see us in our human expression, a Ron, a Karen or a Mary, etc, as the 'focus personality' of the divine in a three dimensional world. But I don't think that we exist just in a three dimensional world. We are multidimensional beings.

If you picture a cone shape or a inverted pyramid, at the very bottom of the point would be the focus personality that we are here. God as Karen or God as Ron, Charles, Mary, etc. But because we are spirit, we are really unlimited to just that.

At the top of this pyramid would be our broader unlimited aspect. Even science calls it the 'unified field' - a unified field of energy. As Fran so often says, "We are here, there, and everywhere." Why wouldn't spirit be so? That is why prayer is so powerful. Wherever you focus, you are there. There is no travel time involved. No time lag. That is not the realm of time.

So, as I see it, we hold a 5th dimensional awareness in spirit, but to operate it in this realm of matter (a 3rd and 4th dimension), our energy is coalesced into a focus point, a terrestial terminal for expression. That would be us in the here and now. We are how heaven comes into earth.

Just some of my ponderings.
Joy to the world, the Lord is come, let Earth receive her King,
Karen
