In the accompanying verses, God was demanding that Job search
his heart for answers to some very strange questions,
such as: Where were you when the foundations of the Earth were
laid out? To Job and to each of us today, this is a strange question
indeed. We feel so connected to physical life that how could we
possibly have been anywhere when the foundations of the Earth
were set! But we were -- a godly part of us, made in the image
of the Creator.
According to this legend, on that first morning, flush with
life -- our young minds ablaze with wonder -- we godlings began
to explore the Cosmos. As children do, we peered into the many
mansions of our Father’s house and found wonders upon
wonders. Eventually, some of us came to this present solar system,
with its beautiful star and nine planets. Our first appearance
here was not an incarnation, per se, because there were no human
bodies then. In that dawn we were minds in the breeze, voices
in the wind -- voices foretelling of the eventual coming of
humanity. With a youthful joy, we looked forward to entering
this new realm and exploring its wonders.
Earth was not the only planet we visited, nor was the third
dimension our primary level of consciousness. The universe was
ours to enjoy. By doing so, we would grow to become true companions
to the Creator of the universe, who loves us and longs to enjoy
our companionship. In quiet moments we may sense the truth of
this story.
As the psalmist wrote of us: “Ye are gods, all of you
sons [and daughters] of the Most High,” Ps. 82:6. How
have we lost touch with this truth? How have we become so terrestrial,
so temporary? Where is our celestial, eternal nature, our mind
that once flew through the Cosmos? Cayce says that it is still
within us, waiting to be awakened! He says that each of us can
find it in the depths of sleep and dreams, prayers and meditations,
and by letting God’s spirit flow into our physical lives
and the lives of those around us.
This world has now become an important part of our soul growth.
An incarnation here is purposeful. As mundane as physical life
can be at times, our soul has purposefully sought out this incarnation
to resolve some of its karma by learning new lessons of cooperation
and love. But, from time to time, it’s good to connect
with our original, heavenly self again, not just within us but
within others.
The morning stars may well sing together again!
