YOUR CREATIVE POWER
Saturday 21 February 2009
I believe that which is true for me can also be true for you.
As a child I was curious about many things. And I
could learn from formal schooling, reading books and magazines and
newspapers, listening to the radio, talking with people my age, talking
with people much older and hopefully wiser, with my parents, cousins,
etc.
And I developed an interest in why this, why that,
why me, what is my purpose in life, and so on. And from this interest I
started to do various kinds of research on my own. I had a course in
LIBRARY SCIENCE which helped my research into published articles on
whatever subject of interest to me. Also I experimented. In effect I
started to the use the scientific methods in research.
And my interest turned to the human mind and its
various capacities and powers. And the variation between people because
of sex, age, culture, conditioning, training, experience, etc.
And I began to realize that there was a source of
intelligence and wisdom within me that I could draw upon. So can you.
It
is the GOD presence regardless of what we call it. Some develop this
awareness to the point where they draw upon that source for inspiration
in whatever they attempt to do.
I have very good skills in writing, printing,
publishing, research, people skills, inventing, etc. I also was
blessed with high intelligence and a variety of aptitudes.
And I believe that what I am creative with is a
function of the resources I have available to me. This is related also
to my station in life, my parents, etc.
Thus I accept that the creative power within me,
within you, can be used to solve most problems we face. All we have to
do is learn how to learn, and how to solve problems. It is a skill we
can learn, or be taught.
For example, one of my cousins is a nuclear
physicist and helped build the first atomic submarine. As a child he
experimented with his chemistry set and made small amounts of
nitroglycerin. He would brush some on the door knob of his room so that
if his sister, parents, or others would try to enter his room... the
nitro would explode and push away their hand. Not strong enough to
hurt, but strong enough to scare. His curiosity and economic means
allowed him to become what he became.
For those who find themselves panhandlers on the
street begging for money for food and other necessities... they are
also creative within their means. Alcohol and hard drugs often have
crippled them. And time in prison has not done them any good. And their
failure to get basic education in the school system, or acquire good
common sense has cost them lots. But still they are creative within
their means in their methods of approach and begging to the point of
being con artists at times.
I have studied the behaviour of the mean fire ants
with the pinchers in front and the stinger in the rear. They are
intelligent critters and do problem solving. So do the birds and
animals of all kinds. And of course the micro organisms have that
creative power too.
I accept that the creative power of GOD is in all
things since before the beginning of time. It is a wonderful world.
Those who have contributed inventions of various
kinds to mankind also have used the creative power of the mind within
them, plus the advantage of inspiration from higher powers coming from
GOD.
Thus be prudent and learn to use the power of your
mind to solve problems. You do have that creative power. Use it. Don't
give me your problems; I do not want your problems; solve your own
problems!
On the other hand I do have compassion, and strive
to help those who are also trying to help themselves. But there are too
many people that believe that the world owes them a living... and do
not do their part to help make this a better world.
Focus on any of your problems. With patience and
persistence I believe most problems can be solved. And sometimes a
number of reincarnations are necessary. But at times some problems can
be solved in a matter of minutes, or hours, or days or a few years.
Patience and persistence is one of the keys.
Peace, love, healing, intelligence, prosperity to
you and your loved ones.
