Be still and know that I am God.


The perfect equality of the Holy Spirit’s perception is the reflection of the perfect equality of God’s knowing. The ego’s perception has no counterpart in God, but the Holy Spirit remains the Bridge between perception and knowledge. By enabling you to use perception in a way that reflects knowledge, you will ultimately remember it. The ego would prefer to believe that this memory is impossible, yet it is your perception the Holy Spirit guides. Your perception will end where it began. Everything meets in God, because everything was created by Him and in Him. T-6.II.7:1-6

Perception and knowledge are two different things. Perception is of the world of the ego and knowledge is of the Kingdom of God. We usually don’t perceive what we know deep down and that’s where the Holy Spirit can help us. The ego doesn’t want us to know God because in this knowing the ego dissolves. In Psalm 46:10 it is written, “Be still and know that I am God.”


In Unitarian Universalism some of us covenant together to affirm and promote the free and responsible search for truth and meaning. This search will ultimately take us from the world of the ego to the Kingdom of God.


Today it is suggested that we take some time to rest, go inward, and become aware of the Kingdom of God. We can ask the Holy Spirit to help us in this activity. Resting in God is where we belong.
