Mankind has a tendency to place judgments upon God. These judgments are based on our perceptions of how we think God behaves. We hold a composite view of God based on the teachings of others, generally using the Bible as our guide. We often superimpose our motivations on God believing, as He created us, so is He. What if our preconceived notions about God are flawed and God is actually very different from the God of our perceptions?

We cannot simply know God as He truly is as He is beyond our comprehension. We must seek to gain knowledge about Him directly from Him. We must let go of our former beliefs and be open to God’s revelations about Himself. God chooses for us to know Him and to develop a personal relationship with Him. Only by more fully understanding Him and His motivations, can we truly advance in our spiritual quest to know God.

God tells us He is only love and that love is all there is. We find this difficult to understand, seeing life filled with so many unloving acts and conditions. It is not until we look at life from God’s perspective, or as much as we can, that we can even begin to understand that love is really all there is.

When first we think a circumstance tragic, from God’s perspective, we see it is an invaluable learning tool sent to us specifically for the advancement of our souls. We see that God has given each of us free will to fully explore our creative potential and to experience life to the fullest. It is from bad that we fully know good, from hate that we fully know love and from selflessness that we can fully know ourselves as God intends.
