Do you watch shadows or seek the light?


To what else except all power and glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore God’s Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is, and for its own acknowledgment of what it is. When you acknowledge this you bring the acknowledgment automatically to everyone, because you have acknowledged everyone. By your recognition you awaken theirs, and through theirs yours is extended. Awakening runs easily and gladly through the Kingdom, in answer to the Call for God. T-8.II.8:1-5

When the seeker turns from the shadows on the cave walls and goes to the opening of the cave and sees the light, there is great joy in the seeker and those who will listen to what the seeker has become aware of.


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the free and responsible search for truth and meaning. This means turning from the shadows of the world of the ego to the sparkling light of the Kingdom of God.


Today it is suggested that we turn from watching the shadows on the wall of the ego and watch the sparkling light outside of the cave of our imprisonment in the Kingdom of God.
