Let God make you special

Deep inside of me there is an understanding that I am a god, ruling in a loose alliance with 8 billion other equal spiritual citizens. Tell me that I come second to anyone and I will either pick up the gauntlet, or walk my merry way. Next to me, inequality doesn’t exist because my free spirit doesn’t tolerate it. The exception of course is service. When I see God shining through in the friend I interact with, I am happy to lie humbly in the dust.

The search for enlightenment is often caused by the the feeling that life as we experience it is not worth our while, or it is a subconscious power trip, cleverly disguised by our ego. It’s ok though. Once we hand over the reigns to God we are shown that life is worth living for moment by moment. We are also shown that we are an essential part of God’s beautiful mosaic. If we let Her, She will make us special.

A spiritual journey is a cleverly designed course of disentanglement, not with life itself, mind you, but with our ego-centered perspective of what life is about, or should be about. Successes and failures are of the ego, for us spiritual travelers only life ‘as is’ matters and is worth living for. God makes us special along this journey, but how so, may only be meaningful to us. It’s ok, not everyone is able to perceive God’s mosaic of life.

When I reflect on my own achievements I have to conclude that I was pretty special in my old financial sector job. I surrounded myself with the best of the industry and together we were mostly a step away of the competition in figuring market themes up. You may see this an an ego outlet, and it certainly was, but it was also a holy alliance of friends who cared for each other and rallied to the occasion as one.

These days I spend my time writing and educating the next wave of spiritual ascendents. I am doing a fine job in this direction, with notes like this for example. What really makes me special though is my one-on-one work with my clients who have specific issues that hold them back. Solving these interferences with the Holy Spirit is what makes me truly special, but then, I am just Her medium. God makes me special!
