The layers of the onion keep peeling in my soul journey.
Maybe yours too?
I keep being invited – sometimes gently, sometimes not – to see more clearly.
Sometimes this takes me into new territory.
Sometimes back over familiar ground.
Often in ways I didn’t expect.
Lately, the inquiry sounds like this:
Am I willing to perceive more clearly what my
country,
society,
religion
actually are – and what they actually do?
Not to judge.
Not to react.
Not to feel any particular way.
Simply to see.
And from that place of clear seeing, to consciously choose and act.
.
I’ve come to believe that when I “clear the deck” in my soul,
when I clean my perception,
it creates space for something New to emerge.
For me, this practice supports real freedom.
Not theoretical freedom.
Lived freedom.
It helps me:
• Hear the quiet inner guidance: “this is the way, walk in it – and actually walk it.
• Develop spiritual ears to hear and eyes to see… and the courage to live what I see.
• Pray, speak, and act from the inside out: “Thy realm come. Thy will be done. On earth as in heaven.”
What I’m describing is an increasingly conscious dance between physical and spiritual reality.
A gradual loosening of the invisible cords that bind.
A collaboration with God into greater maturity,
into deeper soul liberty and agency,
in alignment with Source.
.
And from here, the questions become more honest.
Layer by layer:
Who am I really serving?
• Empire?
• Mammon?
• The systems of this world – even in their subtle forms?
Or…
• The Realm of God?
• Love of God, neighbor, and self?
• The path of discipleship – which often looks like soul-death before new life?
I cannot serve two masters.
Noticing that I am choosing
– every day, every hour, every moment –
changes everything.
It helps me choose from deep within my soul
instead of from default patterns, unconscious loyalties, fear, or the need to please.
I am still very much in process.
I don’t expect this tension to disappear
as long as I keep saying Yes:
to God,
and to what Sacred Life is offering me.
.
How does this kind of inquiry show up in your life?
You may use different language.
Different frameworks.
But where do you notice yourself choosing?
And what helps you see clearly enough to choose freely?
