ENJOYING THE MIRACLE
OF EXISTENCE
That anything exists at all is a miracle, from the quantum bits of which everything is composed, to the cosmos in which everything is contained.
(It has always been my personal conjecture that our Big Bang is the recycled energy of a solar system coming out of a Black Hole.)
Every living thing in our world, down to each cell in our body, is variously in competition, collaboration, or cooperation with every other living thing.
Inanimate things are continually interacting with the energy and elements of our earth and cosmos.
Each living thing and the cells it contains, creates its own world that is in a relationship with everything else that exists, to the farthest reaches of the cosmos.
Science can offer various answers to the HOW of creation and the WHAT of physical existance. but only a revelation can tell WHY it all exists
Perhaps the WHY is a universal consciousness of which we are all part. But that does bot tell us WHY a universal consciousness exists
The complex, evolving existence of life on our unique planet could be The Great Game of Life of God, the supreme consciousness that creates, perfects and then replaces the multitude of lifeforms on our planet, using the processes we call evolution.
Some people have their own reason to know that within a universal consciousness is a moral intelligence that participates in human lives. Some people call this The Holy Spirit, but it has different names in other faiths and cultures.
The Holy Spirit manifests as a serene enjoyment of the beauty and wonders of our planet, and a love for other people, which is built upon with wisdom, over a lifetime.
May the Holy Spirit inspire, guide, protect and provide on your journey in life.
May you have time for Blessed Solitude in which to commune with the Holy Spirit for wisdom and serenity.
