Underestimating God.

[inavalan]

I respect everybody's right to their beliefs. It is just that when something doesn't work for you, maybe you have to actively try something else, instead of doing the same thing and hope. Maybe you were honestly misled. Whom to trust? What to trust? Are we pawns?

I suggest you turn toward your own inner source of knowledge and guidance. That's what I did / do.

In fact, what we underestimate is our inseparable oneness with God.

Like the Fool card in Tarot, who his the Alpha and Omega of the process of transformation.

In the beginning we need to underestimate God or the next step will bring us down the cliff.

In the end, when the trust in God is total and real, the fool does not care about, or even see, the cliff. He will most probably walk on air as did Jesus on water.

Zastrakoza,

I agree and I would suggest we have the same dangerous tendency to do so with Satan or the devil. In this case by visualizing Satan extraneous to ourselves we conveniently construct a scapegoat that discourages us from looking within.

Hi there .. do you really think he never knows what he's doing?? My belief is that he knows exactly what he's doing. But that is just my own personal belief, not to disrespect yours.
