Spirituality Information: The God Process

Spirituality Information: The God Process
By Richard Blackstone
God is a process. This spirituality information is foundational to your spiritual growth. God is in the continual process of change. You are in a continual process of change. You and God are inter-change-able. So let's ask and answer some basic questions to see how this process plays itself out and some of the reasoning behind it all.

Why did God create the universe in the first place? So that she could experience in the physical plane all that she knows conceptually in the absolute plane.

What is our purpose in that creation? We are in a giant collaboration with God. The purpose for our existence is to experience life in all of its different perspectives in order for God to know, through our experiences in the physical plane, all that she knows as concepts in the absolute plane.

There is no other way for God to experience all that she knows except in, as and through us, God's spirit children.

Does God tell us which experiences we are supposed to have at any given time? No, we are free to chose and create any experience that we desire through this concept known as free will. There is no master plan set out for us to follow, so we can never be accused of screwing up the agenda. Our agenda is whatever we choose it to be. And the topper is that God does not judge or condemn whatever we choose to create.

God gave us free will that allows us to choose to live our lives in any manner that we desire. God allowed us to voluntarily forget who we really are when we entered this physical plane as part of this process. It is within this wonderful gift of this voluntary amnesia that we are able to play this game with such abandon and such innocence.

You see, if we knew all along that we are spirit children of God, then we wouldn't have any choice about something over which we have no choice. We are spirit children of God no matter what. We cannot not be that. We can, however, forget that. It is in this wonderful gift of forgetting who we really are that allows us to choose the experiences in life that define ourselves.

So we are always

in the continual, moment-to-moment process of defining ourselves. This process never ends because it is the process of life revealing itself to itself. It is circular, or, more accurately, it is a triad that moves from one leg to the other to the other to the other in a never-ending process of creation.

As we discussed earlier in the book, when we talked about the more subtle relationships in life, we are always talking about triads. These triad relationships reveal to us the on-going continuum of the life process.

God is our source. God is the base line of everything that happens after God. God created the all of everything by dividing the source of all (God) into portions of the all. So everything that exists is made up of the essence that is God.

The properties that we ascribe to God are omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence. God is omniscient, all-knowing. God is omnipotent, all-powerful and God is omnipresent, present in all places at the same time. And of course, God is eternal.

This eternal God is forever in the process of knowing itself in each and every moment of now. God is a process.

You can't nail God down to being one thing because she is all things. She is omnipresent. He is in all places at the same time, so trying to picture God as an entity is impossible to do, except as the one entity that is all entities. The scope of this picture of God goes on forever because God is infinite.

So once again, if we can change our perception of what we believe God to look like, we would be more accurate to describe God as a never-ending process that we can just as easily call Life. If you want to visualize God, then think of a picture in nature and let your mind's eye run through that picture as it moves from season to season. This picture changes moment to moment on the micro scale. Moment to moment, second to second, minute to minute, hour to hour, day to day, month to month, season to season, year to year, decade to decade, century to century, millennium to millennium, and so on. It is a continuous process of change.
