Is Life Living in You?
Life for some is just a series of daily routines. For others, it
is seeking one thrill to the next. And there are those who just want to have
fun in life like there is no tomorrow. Unfortunately, if you live life like
them, you will find yourself drained in the end. Weariness and the fading of
your intoxicating emotions will soon over take you. You will either give up out
of fatigue, or seek another emotional high like an addict (and the vicious
cycle continues.) And it all leads to one place, emptiness.
Like someone said “We worked hard all last night and didn't
catch a thing.”
As much as we want to liven up
our lives, our efforts will always be short-lived, for even we are short-lived.
Everything is passing in this world, including us. So every attempt to create
our own happiness, our own life, apart from God, will always end in vain.
So how do we live? I mean really
live?
For any creature to live, it
needs LIFE. Otherwise it is just a nomadic, walking around aimlessly as life
passes by.
Natural life is temporal and soon
dies. So we need a life that is beyond natural, we need supernatural life.
Supernatural life is always dynamic, it never tires nor bores. Most importantly
it never gets empty.
Like whosoever drinks water will never get thirst.
Indeed, the water in him will become a spring of water welling up to eternal
life.
So where do we find this
supernatural life? The life that lives…
We shall not find it “where”, but
with “Whom.”
With Ourselves.. Only task to be
done is to identify.. or to extract the real “me” in “I”.
Only we can live up to our
lives. Only we can give us supernatural joy and peace, and ultimate meaning for
our existence. To have the real we live in us is to have all of them (peace
joy and way of living).
Only we can lift our natural life to supernatural, our temporal
life to eternal. Anything else will fall short. Anything else will pass away.
But the real problem is not solved until we do not believe in ourselves.
If our thinking dwells in us, we
have the same dynamic power that created the universe living in us. Just
imagine that!
You have not known what life is
until you have known yourself.
So don’t waste it.
Come to Yourself.
