107 the reality of sin

Sin: is a breakdown in love relationships. Sin consequences are in disharmony, marginal oppression, pain, & suffering. Ask God to reveal your Sins, which He resolves through mercy & healing. DAY 1 Read Luke 15:11-32 (The parable of the prodigal son and his brother). Consider: How does Jesus' parable help me understand my own estrangement from God and others? How does it help me appreciate God's welcome to me, a sinner?

I’m really inspired with this work on SEEL, because instead of understanding “estrangement,” I’ve been coming to understand the deeper more active intimacy of Jesus in His many Personalities abounding in my experience . . . Saint Mary, Saint Joseph, Father, Son and Holy Spirit . . . with the many Saints and Angels that my Mom connected me to. Yes, this is a challenge for me now as I have finally gotten my desktop computer running again. I know this work before me is about publishing and updating my origin story and the other writings I have shared over the years. What’s my story of intimacy with the Trinity? Coming back to the prodigal story now, is really challenging and intimidating as it was my own beginning, or I recognize that this major transition was direct and intense for my own growth. Rewriting my history again would really start with this story anyway, as this was what brought me to write in the first place.

I had my motorcycle accident and my death experience, and I was really not interested in coming back. This began my more detailed conversation with Jesus about my own place and purpose here on Earth. I had been sent here, which I really had always known. But now with the Death Experience, I wanted to know more? If we were not able to stay in the Garden of Eden, how can we return there? What’s the real purpose in allowing us God’s Knowledge, by eating this apple, but then forced to discover all the limits through trial and error . . . Yes, I realize we decided not to listen and follow along with another, But ALL IS YOUR CREATION. If You allow us to be deceived and place us with deceivers, where is the justice in punishment? That childhood experience of ghosts in the closet, were a bit more profound for me as my imaginary friends were apparently all Saints and Angels who knew and recognized my place and responsibility, not allowing me to get in over my head. 

But I was able to see and envision the power and purpose, where the freedom to error brought more growth and recognition of these deeper truths. Of course, I demanded more, where I was seeking to understand my own responsibility. Was I really here to develop Solutions and Expressions of these deeper truths. Or maybe I'm just setting the stage for our next transition back into more Spirit!?!?!

2:36am 1/19/2024 Returning home to this passion of mine brings the Joys of Love so present and fulfilling. I realize my hunger and desire to reach those that I love who are close to me, needs to be more generalized and expanded to include everyone, , , , instead of only my son or Friends. Building the gardens blog feels right, now expressing this deeper truth here already. It’s sharing recipes and techniques all together for others to learn and use easily. No limits, No insecurity. The restrictions imposed by our greed impacts everything. I too have been waiting to get an advertising scheme in correctly, to monetize my writing more. But as forcing my learning and insight onto my son and friends has not been realistic nor have I been successful with monetization yet.

In all honesty, I've just now accepted that remote teaching is more than enough for me to do now. I can easily sign-up to do classes across the world. . . . Except, I'm really making only peanuts and can't seem to afford anything. I might really be saying that only as an excuse to fast, as I never seen to be missing anything. Like already two cups of hot strong espresso, and half my giant bowl of fruit pictured here below!

I know, I've never really cared about my income and always have more than enough, or really too much usually. So my writing is about sharing the presence of God, which is really about making this place Holy. And I must accept this Joy and Be Glad about where I am doing what I must do. Yes, accept what is. I guess, it's really about Matt 4:18-22, to immediately leave my solitude to follow GoD'S Will here before me on this page of white, writing in my scribbles. Blessed to see the translations and corrections, that magically appear every moment.

I will call to memory the sin of the Angels: how they were created in Grace, and then not wanting to better themselves by using their freedom to reverence and obey their Creator and Lord, they fell into pride, were changed from Grace to malice and hurled from heaven to hell. 

This next reading from The Ignition Adventure, brings me to consider more of this.. . . Blessing of freedom. I know I am safe and protected. I know I can do and achieve more than any possible dream and imagination. I know and see this constantly as my blessing and security in God, are very strong and present for me.

I know, this is more than enough, or really too much usually. . . And I wonder about expressing this more fully, in fear of my pride. Satan got caught in pride. Now as I swing the sward of Saint Michael and the fish of Saint Raphael . . . I witness the beauty and the power of all the Saints who respond to any call I could imagine. Again, I witness the peace and beauty beyond any possible dream and imagination and accept my place to bring it forward.

Yes, all for Christ our King, oh praise Him, oh praise Him, oh praise Him. This phrase was on the JoyFM Radio now. And yes, I do see the times where I wasn't focused on these tasks before me. Selfish and concerned about myself instead of thrusting my deeper truth that I essentially always knew. I've always been challenged to listen and find peace. 

Now for my next DAY 3: Genesis 2:4-4:16  What do you learn about the nature of sin and the effects of sin? Eeek this next section of my studies is long and intense. And as I consider it again now before I post my copies and I realize this is really the beginning of sin for all of us.

Of course, this really starts with Creation itself. And what jumps out to me now is how there is an intentional definition of the Tree of Life and Tree of Knowledge as very distinct and significant to the Creation!?!?

As I consider this, it brings me back to the prodigal story above where God has placed in creation something that brings conflict or curiosity, and choice. Like choosing to trust and accept or to explore and discover. Was I really a prodigal or was exploring and discovering all the opportunities God had created and opened up to me?

Which returns me to sin created by man, was it man who opened these things to me, was it the snake, or was GOD intentional in creating conflicts and challenges before us. Like in creation of life and intentionally planting the Gardens. Such beauty and marvels before us to inspire choices and explorations.

I'm sure we are all challenged all the time and the exploration of relationships and growth in knowledge and understanding is fundamental to everything.

I am sure God, Adam, and Eve were enjoying the gardens and experience together for years, or centuries before the snake showed up to mess it all up. I mean the realization that man needed someone certainly did not happen over night. And making a New body and soul from man is kinda interesting, as all mankind to come thereafter are men born from the woman.

Yes all life is filled with these synchronicities between opposites. And it's interesting how the snake or satan was in conflict with God, wanting to Be as God, and then used this same logic to entice Eve to pick and eat from the tree of knowledge.

And this brought fear and hiding from God instead of a deeper knowledge and love of God. So now what has my own study and exploration here done for me. Has my deeper understanding brought me closer to God, on opened more doors for me to get lost in ego pride and selfishness. As weird as it sounds, I was visiting a friend yesterday, where I wanted to share so much and to my surprise all I was able to share and discuss was the Unity Patent linked above.

Now this next section focuses on the sin and consequences. I guess this is sorta fundamental to all of it. We all have to recognize that our sins can bring immediate responses beyond anything we would normally expect. I'm reminded of my TV loss. It really impacted me, kept me up all night and forced me into deeper prayers and explorations. But in truth it was really not a direct personal loss at all. It's really amazing how much I learned and grew with just witnessing the loss, and I realize we each have our own levels of learning and exposure to losses based on on own divinity, and commitments to Spirit.

I mean, for example I can not count how many times I've been threatened or approached death by violence and the direct impact from others and from my own hand as well. I’ve come to recognize that I am protected . . . 

.

So recognizing I am protected, and knowing that I have been sent. Then seemingly having or getting everything I could possibly need or want. All together really seems kinda odd. And to have this all come up with Genesis and evaluating the original sin of mankind and the related sins that evolved from that moment seems a bit odd. Am I coming to some new realization on understanding that I've not perceived before. To end this section with a mortal sin where Cain was cursed. I guess killing his brother over an offering to God, seems a bit extreme.
