Telephone and retelling a bad joke

I never had a quest for God, a higher Devine. There is no question about it. There exists a higher power! The creator of the molecule that caused the Big Bang, the God that talks with people through their own psyche. As of last night, my quest for a religion has changed. Last night, I came to the full realization that the Bible is a book of other people's account with God. Here's the problem. In our limited understanding of God, us humans have tried to come up with a definition of him. We read the bible and take these accounts as how it really happened! Well guess what, They aren't even close to what happened. What happened when Abraham talked with God was more powerful and soul crushing than those words that we can read. It's like retelling a joke and we've all fucked up the punch line. God is more than your box that you put him in and when you label him as Magnificent and Timeless, you limit what he can do for you. God is everything and more. The only word that I have been able to read as of late that truly describes him is "Devine" but that works for ME and might not for you. Because to me devine has a connotation and brings with it a picture in my mind's eye of what I experience with God.

So where am I now? Cleansed!

Where to now? I am still in my search for religion. I have this feeling that each religion has it's own piece to the puzzle. Catholics have the angles and saints. Jews have an all encompassing God. Hindus have Chakras. Buddhists have Meditation. Each of these are important for ME (and maybe only me), to find God, the way he wants to reveal himself to me. So, what has begun as my search for truth about Jesus, has become my experience for God to come to me and tell me, this isn't about him, it's about you and me. The analytical person inside of my mind will still be on a search for religion and Jesus (man or myth) just because I need something to do during Jake's nap times. I want to fill myself with all things faith. I have a thirst for seeking more of the devine. But, don't worry friend, I am not going to be on the street saying Jesus loves you. I'm not going to ask you If you've found Peace with God. When you are ready, he will show you. That is your journey with him. Just as my relationship with him doesn't come from waking up Gabe's soul to talk to me or finding out who Jesus was; one's relationship with the Devine consists of You and That Voice.

On a good note, my Vishuddha is open and my mind is wise.
