WHO IS GOD ?
THE HEART SEES GOD
One of the first experiences I h ad on coming to this organisation, at its
inception in the later 1930's, was feeling myself linked to God as if by a
current of electricity. There was just this stream of electricity flowing
directly from God to me. It was such an exhilarating experience that I
knew that all I wanted to do was turn myself and my life over to God
completely. Later, I began to feel as if God Himself had taken hold
my hand, and that it was He who was making me move forward. I still
feel that way today. I feel His company constantly, and that the hand of
His blessings is always on my head.
My experience is that you cannot see God with these physical eyes and
you cannot understand God with a limited, gross intellect. Rather, God
needs to be recognised, which is something far more revelatory than
mere 'seeing' or philosophical understanding. 'Recognition' is not as
much a matter of the physical brain as much as it is one of the heart.
When the heart 'sees' God, when the heart 'knows' God, then there can
be recognition. So recognition comes from feelings, experiences and
understandings from the heart.
