We long for God, because we long for Truth, for
Peace, for Love, for Understanding, for Life. Jesus said
that to know God aright is Life, eternal. Our desire for
life, Peace and Good, is really our cry for God,
Where shall we find Him? Everywhere. "In Him I
live." -- Acts 17:28. Think of this! I live in Life eternal,
in Intelligence, in Spirit, in Truth and Love, in All Good.
Of course I do if the kingdom of God is within me -- at
hand.
Do we believe that God is Omnipresent? We say yes;
but think, do we believe God is All-Presence? "God
omnipotent means good everywhere present," and this
admits of no other presence but Good. Do we believe
that God's Presence fills every spot and space, and do
we refuse to see anything that is not the presence of
Good? Yet this is just What Omni-presence means.
The Bible supports this idea: Fer. 23:24, "Do I not fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord." Psl. 139:7,
"Whither shall I go from thy spirit, or whither shall I
flee from thy presence? If I ascend into heaven Thou
art there. If I make my bed in hell, behold Thou art
there." God's presence, which, remember, means the
presence of Changeless Love, Truth and Life, fills heaven
and earth, and behold is to be found even in hell!
What is the difference between "heaven" and "hell?"
Heaven is where God's presence is recognized as "all in
all." Hell is where God's presence is not recognized.
Both are "within" us.
But as if these words were not enough to convince
us, we hear still further, in Eph. 1:23, about "The fulness
of Him that filleth all in all;" and again, Col. 3:11, we
read, "Christ is all and in all." This is what God omnipresent means.
Omnipotent -- All-Power -- admits no other Power.
