3. Finding God In Those We Love

The third book I am delighting in is Dr Arthur Green's book, Seek My Face'.

Arthur Green is a Jewish Rabbi and has a lovely (Jewish) wit and poetic turn of phrase as he encourages us to seek God, the world, and ourselves in the light of Jewish mysticism.

Green sheds new light on our search for the Divine Presence in our everyday lives. He encourages us to look for and find, to listen for and hear, the Eternal One who is anywhere and everywhere. In this way

“We come to know God through the deep connections we make with one another, (as we open) ourselves to the Divine Presence manifested in those whom we allow ourselves to love”.

The common theme in the three books I have mentioned so far in these Blogs is that there is no need to search for God because God has already found us. It is learning to open our gift of intuition to sense, see, and feel the Divine in all things.

We will explore this in more depth together, in the days ahead.

Kia mau te rongo me te pai ki a koe i to haerenga

May you find peace and good will on your journey.
