When a Day Is Like an Eternity: A Spiritual Miracle

Original Writing: Like an Eternity

 

Every day is like an eternity.

A highway ahead enclosed by solid rock mountains on either side under the sky.
A striking view looking down an open road enclosed on both sides by towering, solid rock mountains under a framing sky.

The loneliness is subsiding; that is, there is God. Till death do us part, is as close, as one’s last breath, for with years comes the inevitable end.

The days have caught up; the time is at hand. Join together, one and all. Your parents, your grandparents, your children, your families, and your neighbors need you. God said, “No more suffering.”

The pain remembered, oh so distant but right at the grasp of the mind’s eye, a lifetime, in one thought.

Come out of the grave of the outer and into the peace of the inner. Give it to God through Jesus Christ. Think not of yourself, but give of yourself.

My mind is clear of all obstructions. The cobwebs have been cleaned. The understanding of the parables is precise, not just for me and you but for everyone concerned.

For if it is to be. To satisfy all the lusts imaginable, why are you still without, an empty void? Awesome, Yuk, the dung of existence, for if we are without, what must it be like within?

The liberty of our eternal existence is at hand. Clean your internal house; clear the cobwebs. Without, you are lost; with, there is no separation, for within comes contentment.

Withdraw inward, seek the peace within. The passion comes from long-suffering. Greed comes from the lusts of man. Where is the freedom? The world is contrite. Litigation is in an explosion of catastrophes daily.

Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened. Listen, and you will hear. Enter the inner chamber, and clear the misconceptions of existence. There is only one way, one way through the narrow hall, for verily, if we sway, the way can be reversed.

The Passion of Christ is Within. The promises are of Christ Within. The mysteries of Christ are within. The lusts of the world are deteriorating our existence. Fight for the truth.

The truth is in us all. The search is final. Once found, stacked down, there is no other. The One, the Redeemer of Our Souls, is in your face.

Reflection

    True prayer is not found in the noise or geography of the outer world; it is found when the heart is fully awakened in stillness.

    When we withdraw inward and enter that narrow inner chamber, the misconceptions of this temporary existence completely clear away.

    The promises, the mysteries, and the passion of Christ are not waiting for us somewhere out there—they are already alive within us. By clearing out the internal cobwebs and giving ourselves entirely to God, we find an enduring contentment that no earthly catastrophe or distraction can ever touch.

Expanded Reflection:
    Originally recorded in July 1996, this profound piece serves as a monumental turning point in the spiritual path, capturing the precise moment where the soul stops running down the open roads of external seeking and turns entirely inward toward the Creator.
    Enclosed by the towering, heavy mountains of worldly limitations and human struggles, the spirit experiences a deep awakening: loneliness immediately dissolves the moment we recognize the absolute ever-presence of God.
    This writing lays bare the emptiness of chasing earthly lusts, comparing the shallow exterior world to the dung of existence.
    True liberty demands an uncompromised internal house cleaning—a thorough sweeping away of the mental cobwebs, legalistic distractions, and worldly obstructions that cloud the mind’s eye.
    By firmly sheathing the ego and stepping directly through the narrow hall of salvation, the author discovers that the mysteries, promises, and the very Passion of Christ are not distant historical events, but a living reality operating fully within the sanctuary of the heart.
    Ultimately, this foundational testimony stands as a triumphant declaration that when we surrender the keeping words of human pride and withdraw into the quiet, inner chamber of faith, the search is finalized, the empty void is filled, and the face of our true Redeemer is revealed in perfect, everlasting contentment.
