The Creator speaks with as many voices as there are ears to hear. Acts in as many ways as there are eyes to see, and can validate as many truths as there are souls to witness.
So, Happy Hour Friday evening became an illustration…
I came in on a conversation between neighbors. It started with a particular religion and became about Creation and one’s relation to an Infinite Being. My Brother Craig said he felt closer to "a Supreme Being or whatever you believe in" when he was wading upstream with a fly rod and feeling the river and seeing nature; minks, otters, beaver etc.. "than one could ever feel in a chapel". Brother Tobe agreed, but made it about a singular connection – as opposed to a larger multiple connection - to another being. His example was the soul feeling he got when meeting the newest member of our gathering that night… a lovebird named Orlando (He/She has brought a message so there will be more on Orlando later).
While they agreed, I wondered if they realized it. Craig finds His Creator in the natural world especially when he's feeling a part of it all; the As Above perspective so to speak. Toby too, finds connection in the natural world but Spirit seems to speak loudest to him when he makes a one-on-one kind of connection; So Below.
Seems it takes all kinds to make a world. What crappy place this would be if we were all accountants. And if we were all painters...? Just think of the struggle between realism, impressionism and abstract; that could become a full out war. It must take all kinds of a Creator for this world... for all of us.
