Morning Meditation from The GratiDude

An important thing to remember is the difference between faith and facts.  When it comes to seeking out proof or validation as to the nature of existence, the laws of the universe, the benevolence of a creator, and the forgiveness of an all-knowing spirit, you can only take science and measurements so far.

It was Thomas Aquinas one of the historic Catholic philosophers who talked of the “Leap of Faith” needed to connect with God.  That’s where that term comes from and his concept that science and reason will only take you so far in the world of theology and understanding, faith and God.

‘To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible.’

When you get to a certain line or a precipice, his only words of advice were simply “take the leap “.

Faith and reason are two concepts that Theologians and Philosophers have discussed for millennia, with many contending that faith and reason are diametrically opposed, others believe that they are complementary and can coexist.

Faith is a belief in something that cannot be proven through empirical evidence. It is a personal, subjective experience that is often rooted in religion or spirituality. Reason, on the other hand, is the use of logic and critical thinking to arrive at a conclusion. It is objective and based on empirical evidence.

It may seem like faith and reason are completely at odds with each other. Faith often requires a leap of belief, while reason demands evidence and proof. However, many philosophers argue that faith and reason are not mutually exclusive, and in fact, they can work together.

One way that faith and reason can coexist is through the concept of philosophical theology. This is the idea that God could be studied using reason and philosophical argumentation. Philosophical theologians use reason and logic to study religious concepts and try to understand them in a rational way.

Another way to think about this in our own lives is how faith or how the universe and God work in our everyday life. Sure, there are times where you catch a rainbow, like this one I caught in Sarasota just two days ago.

Though, we must look for signs and most importantly, receive the messages that other human beings, other children of the same source of light, love, energy, and life bring us. Those are the most powerful messages and the messages and the signs that need to be honored.

You see, God works through people. I now firmly understand that.

Not that the people understand the work that they’re doing at the time. They know it feels right and it is in line with their higher self.

And I got news for you that the higher self behind everyone’s higher self is the ultimate higher self whatever you’d like to call that big kahuna or source of all love energy in life.

This video is super cool because from a modern social standpoint, the participants appear quite different in terms of their age and appearance, physical characteristics, social status and other than being men they don’t appear to have a whole lot in common.
