#17 Creation

 “unfolding of God in space as form”

We are all products of a rational (omniscient) Creative Intelligence. We are an embodiment of that Creator and could not be anything that our Creator is not.

“Our bodies are of the stuff of stars and the minerals of the earth. Our blood runs briny with the seas, and we ourselves are living planets for billions of little beings, microorganisms and who knows what else. Our genes are universes in themselves, coded with enough information to recreate the world.”[i]  

It might be hard for some to believe but the Universe is friendly, as Einstein informs us, because only a Creator who is a psychopath would create a hostile Universe in which to condemn his own creation to suffer. Nor would an all-powerful (omnipotent) Creator tolerate any opposition (Satan). Plus the Creator is always available (omnipresent) to guide us.

In the beginning, the human animal lived by instinct (same as all animals) until we evolved to the point of self-awareness. With free will and our ability to make choices, we create our reality—in other words, our beliefs, attitudes, values and emotions have created the world we experience every day. 

We can choose to be guided by the insights emanating from the Creator as we fashion a beautiful and peaceful world; or we can continue to choose self-destruction and suffering. 

Insight # 17 comes to us from Roy Charles Henry (b. 1938). He is the creator of The Simple Reality Project.  

“Creation is the unfolding of God in space-time as form. Or we can say it is the evolutionary unfolding of the universe.”[ii]
