Finding oneself is one important task one must perform. Unfortunately, not many know this and due to this ignorance the majority lose out in many ways. Self-discovery is an art that leads to self-mastery because one becomes so aware of oneself that one is able to understand oneself enough to effectively use self-control and self-regulation.
This is not only a lifelong task, it does require a lot of work to pay attention and endeavour to observe the unseen that lies within. This is the treasure. Every true treasure is buried in and sown in the depth of the unseen.
I have a strong belief that if humans devote their time to seeking the Unseen, they will freely attract the seen to themselves without much ado. Based on the knowledge of regeneration that works in our essence, we should be able to tell how we are individually wired. Again, on account of same knowledge each person can visualize and attract things to themselves. We can be that intentional and deliberate. That is the way to earn understanding.
Each time when the faculty of memory brings up the statement of scripture, "As he thinks in his heart, so is he", I always pause and ponder since I have been made aware of the efficacy of the relationship between the thought and self on the one hand, and the manifestation of thought and the being of self on the other. You are who you are in your thoughts and even when you try, through an afterthought to act otherwise, your vibrations tell you what you have just done; and men who use the perception effectively can read the language of your body.
While this may be attributed to self-control or self-regulation, the consistency of this practice is a more important thing. If you are able to earn consistency in this and make it a process, you can actually achieve the shift you seek and earnestly desire because it is a sojourn into the control of negative thoughts, which produce negative results and impact negatively on your overall self-esteem and well-being. This is one way to be rational from being irrational.
Is the problem of man not more about having than being? If man seeks first and permanently engages self in the sojourn of being, man should find the Source Code or at least acquire a high degree of acquaintance with same. The sojourn of being is the art of seeking first Life in its purity. It is after this that having follows.
One precedes the other in the same way that process precedes proceed and momentum more important than destination because the sterling and intangible character that form enduring habits are earned during the tiny moments of growth, the deliberate growth that the majority of us do not pay attention to.
This is the principle of Life that the only one man that has pronounced that HE is the Way, the Truth and the Life has given: Seek Life first and then you can have the abundance of other things because it's the source of everything. It is not the other way around.
There is no other way to finding oneself. If you are able to seek Life, then you are able to know yourself because Life works on you and lays you so bare that you are left with nothing but granted access to the Code of Knowing. This is essence.
There is definitely a higher intelligence that dwells in humans but many humans are not conscious of this. This acumen keeps working in humans as long as they live. And even when the human ceases to live physically in this plain, it is because that higher intelligence has moved the human essence to another dimension.
Life and death do co-exist the same way that light rolls into darkness and darkness into light. And even in humans, light is present. Without this light, the human has no life. This life is a primary light and it tells that the human is a being with a certain degree of intelligence. This intelligence can be extended to the Super-Intelligence when it cooperates with the same.
On death being ever present in our physical members, we can see destructive agents in the elements that surround us. In life, death is present because the code once broken by The Fall can only be reversed through gaining access to the Divine. How come we are not aware of these things when it is written that except a grain falls into the earth and dies first, it cannot bring forth and reproduce itself?
Talking about the elements, do you realise that there is lead in many foods and water that humans drink? Humanity does consume death constantly through the very things they eat to stay alive. What an irony of existence!
If you are led to know what you ingest and you can devote your time to so live deliberately, you have an automatic system in place that works and replenishes your system to live in fantastic health. You can prosper in every other way possible. You can live while living and not be already dead while you think you have life.
I learned through studying the words of William Marrion Branham that we are born with four rays or lights in us: at age 25, one ray goes out; about age 35 or 40, another one goes out; and finally, when you get past about age 65, another one goes out and we are left with only one. This thought seriously got me.
Do you realise that you do not get physically stronger as you age? Senility and other forms of weakness set in as you advance in age. Argue all you want, this is the reality. Now, what could be responsible for these things? And, do you also realise that as you age, your members like your eyes, and the like get less and less effective? Even your sexual strength diminishes with each progression. Unfortunately, humans do not observe because they are more engrossed with the mundane.
We are given to know by the Father of Lights and the giver of life that the eye is the light of the body and that a man that cannot physically see cannot discern or tell the colour of anything in nature. Such a being cannot identify or describe the colour of the sky, the cloud, the earth and more.
How much our inner eye sees is determined by how much we have surrendered to and permitted the Infinite Intelligence to work in and permeate through our consciousness. This is how we become one with the Infinite Consciousness or Mind.
What else would you like to read if you don't read this? Whatever keeps you away from this is the same thing that continously keeps you away from being and focuses your energies on having, wherein there is only the finite. Why should I settle for the finite when I can have the Infinite and with the Infinite gain the finite? This is the question you have to address your mind to from the moment you are reminded about this Truth. This Truth is the Way. It is the Life and Light. It is total.
Finding yourself means finding the light that works in you. In this search, you find purpose, you find passion, you find talents and you are able to effectively direct same towards acquiring and honing specific skills that are able to help you be of service. You don't find your purpose sitting down and waiting for it. You find your purpose by doing that which your hand finds to do. This is prudence and discretion embedded in conscientiousness.
This is a more excellent way because it is the Way of Truth. The purpose for mankind in whatever mankind does in the ephemeral is to seek the pathway that leads back to the Source from whence he came. You cannot be authentic and true to the dictates of what you do in alliance with your natural inclination and not find the Source of all things. It is impossible.
It is only by paying attention to these things and observing the workings of nature that you get acquainted and used to the depth of the unseen. Through an extension to your own self, you gain more traction as you seek with persistence. We cannot afford to cease from exploration. By this, we walk the more excellent path.
Without finding yourself, you cannot find the value that you represent and you cannot be the value, too. If you don't know who you are, you cannot tell why you are. The lack of this knowledge cannot lead to the fruitful knowledge of relevance of what is worth in nature.
The solution to every problem of man is hidden in nature. Connection to the self and the Higher Self lets you into the depth of harnessing the totality of who you are and sharing it with others. It is from within to without; not otherwise. This is the more excellent way.
