Faith receives.  Love gives.

- The Gospel of Philip 

Gnosis. Where do we go from here? How does gnosis help us live our lives? How can we turn this knowledge into practical terms so we may live more fulfilling lives? Isn’t that what every human truly wants? — To live more fulfilled, joyous lives until the time that we shed our physical’ness’?

I am hard-pressed to believe that gnosis is the end. I am finding it is, truly, only the beginning. Acknowledgment of, and connection with, our Inner Spark is the first step in knowing ourselves — our True Selves. With this accomplished, we must then allow our True Selves to express through our physical beings. It is impossible for this expression to be rooted in anything other than love, for it comes from God.

“He said to them: “Whoever has ears should hear!
Light exists inside a person of light, and he shines on the whole world.
If he does not shine, there is darkness.” - Gospel of Thomas 24:2-3

Shine, indeed.

An understanding of our connection with the Divine and our true nature is imperative. Gnosis offers the key, but beyond the door is knowing what to do with that information…knowing how to shine.

I apologize for my recent absence. I have been going through what I would call a spiritual hibernation. I’m alive and doing fantastic. I will share more in the next several days, but I wanted to quickly say hello and and let you know that I will be posting to my blog on a more regular basis.
