If this is my universe of creation then nothing is here without my invitation, intentional or not. All things – whether nature, people, circumstances – intersect with my beliefs, and it is my observation of them, and my response to them, that determine the truth of my beliefs.

Within God’s creation if man has moved to negatively impact other men does that imply anything about what God believes? No, never. So, perceived negative actions do not prove anything about the Creator. ‘Negative’ circumstances prove nothing to me about myself.

At heart it is my response to perceived ‘negative’ circumstances that might say something of my beliefs, about me. I have always wondered how Jesus could have slept through a storm that was causing the disciples such trauma that they feared for their lives. The storm for Him was neutral, His response was neutral – unconcern, rest, peace within. Yet He moved against it when the well-being of others was confronted – and then questioned their faith.


Any circumstance is neutral – the result of my creation living, interacting, becoming as I desire it to be. As such all things are of extreme importance to me, or should be, given how unaware I might be of them. I need to see my reaction to the event – is it neutral, or ‘positive’, or ‘negative’? If negative then I must look within – what is it saying about me, what belief is incorrect? And if I can see the circumstance as neutral then how is it affecting the rest of my creation and what can I do to lift the response to a level of faith?


I would carefully observe my created universe, be aware of my response to all that occurs, and check my beliefs for the truth of who I am.



You are beginning to see your creations a bit more clearly, seeing them more than as outside influences upon your life, more from a perspective of your influence upon theirs; and that is good. You want your creations to excel in life, to become all that you have envisioned for them – prosperous, healthy, productive in ways that bring peace, and rest, and great joy. It is the place for the creator of great happiness to see this for all of his creations.

And if your creation appears to turn on you then see how you respond – can your response be one of peace and encouragement, without fear to yourself? For if there is fear, then there is a lack of faith...and also a place of examination. But if one can see a circumstance to encourage, to bless, to relieve and bring a new sense of life then that is love, that is creating, that is goodness.

The cold storm is the cold storm, but if it brings a sense of fear to your creation, then change it – change it to a realm of wonder, a place of interest and discovery, of joy unexpressed, the greatest possibility of peace. This is the expression of your being, the way I have made you, the one of great joy for Me.
