Sh-h-h-h-h. Listen. What do you hear?
That’s spirit.
What’s listening?
Spirit.
You can’t get away from it. Spirit, everywhere.
Look at this verse from the Gospel of Thomas:
Jesus said, “It is I who am the light over all. It is I who am the entirety: it is from me that the entirety has come, and to me that the entirety goes. Split a piece of wood: I am there. Lift a stone, and you will find me there.”
Spirit.
Here’s another verse from the Gospel of Thomas:
Jesus said, “I have cast fire upon the world, and look, I’m guarding it until it blazes.”
What is the fire?
Realization of spirit.
Today’s workbook lesson says that the Holy Spirit will take each little 5 minute period we give today, and it will be multiplied “a thousandfold and tens of thousands more. And when it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the little gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the tiny gleam [of] a firefly.”
Fire cast upon the world, blazing.
Today, be a part of this fire. Contemplate this:
Whatever you are aware of today is spirit.
You, which is aware, is spirit.
Contemplate the everywhereness of spirit, the allness of spirit.
“The kingdom is within you and it is outside you.” ~ The Gospel of Thomas
Let the entire day be given to contemplation of spirit. It will be with you throughout the day everywhere that you go and in everything that you do.
