Your majesty

6/25/2012

 
Picture
Christ Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is within you.” (Luke 17:21)  To understand the implications of this requires a shift in our reality-view. Each one of God's children expresses the fullness, the majesty of the one divine Mind that is God.  Whatever Mind includes, we all include by reflection. 

Think about it. Because God doesn’t have an outside, you as God’s likeness don’t have an outside.  Everything exists within, within your reflected being.

So, when you look at huge and majestic mountains or across the grand expanse of an ocean, don’t feel small. As grand as they may seem, they are mere infinitesimal hints of the mass and majesty of you!  You include them. You are the greater and you express God’s dominion over them.  

Picture
A man, looking out at a grand mountain range, once said, “What an amazing and beautiful body I have.” 

Again, think about it! What was he seeing? Did he understand that what he saw was not external or outside of his infinite being as reflection? He embraced the beauty of his wholeness and man's true body as majestic and fully spiritual. 

And yet even then, what he saw with his eyes reflected only faintly and minutely his infinite possibilities as God’s image and likeness.

In an individual way, each of us reflects omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. This was the message in David's 8th Psalm.  He sang, "O LORD our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! who have set your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and infants have you ordained strength...

"When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained; What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him? For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and have crowned him with glory and honor. You made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet."

Christian Science Discoverer Mary Baker Eddy summed it up this way:

'The kingdom of God is within you.' Know, then, that you possess sovereign power to think and act rightly, and that nothing can dispossess you of this heritage and trespass on Love... Each of Christ’s little ones reflects the infinite One and therefore is the seer’s declaration true that 'one on God’s side is a majority.' (Pulpit and Press 3,4)

Wow, Michelle ... I often ponder along these lines of thought, and it is so wonderful to come across somebody else who does. Thank you for sharing it in such an erudite way. Thanks to Beca for sharing your site ... I know of your articles but didn't know you had a website. I shall visit frequently!

Thanks for reminding me of this! It's such an expansive view of what we truly are. And it also makes it incumbent upon us to deal metaphysically with anything we hear about that's wrong - anywhere! Because if our body is really everything we're conscious of, then we can't let anything that challenges its perfection slip by - no matter where it is. Hmmm. Time to get to work!

Michelle Nanouche

Good point, Lisa, and maybe a good time for a clarification.

I think body, in its spiritual sense, is everything that God is conscious of - that is all that is good. Yes we have to be alert to what is posed as wrong around us - alert to make the distinction between what is real and good, and what is evil and has no substance or real connection to us.

For example on a foggy day, one might look out and say a mountain has disappeared. Or that it is deformed. Or shrinking, or growing. Or an odd color. Or angry looking. All because of the light and shadow play coming from a passing, temporary, evaporating fog.

From this we learn not to be fooled by appearances. The mountain is asbeautiful and majestic as ever.

It isn't a material thing in a material universe that constitutes body or identity. But what we perceive as beautiful ad good and simple and delicate and powerful and grand and lovely around us is just a hint at the incredible reflection of God that we are. Drop the material aspect, find the qualities of divine Good, and you glimpse an infinitesimal part of the magnificence of the real and whole you as God is knowing you!

Wow. You are really amazing when you think about it that way!

"As grand as they may seem, they are mere infinitesimal hints of the mass and majesty of you!" What an absolutely powerful concept - and so beautifully written. So very, very wise. And I love thinking that I don't have an "outside." Thank you Michelle, for the post and also for the clarification in the comment section.

    Michelle Nanouche, Christian Science teacher, spirituality, healing, prayer

    ​






    I have practiced Christian Science professionally in
    some form since 1979.
    But my journey with
    Christian Science started
    in a Sunday school
    where as a young child
    I was taught the Scriptures and some simple basics
    of Jesus' method of
    scientific Christian healing.
    A significant experience
    at the age of twelve
    opened my eyes to
    the great potential
    of this practice. 
    After impaling my foot
    on a nail,
    I prayed the way I had learned
    in Sunday school.
    Within moments
    the pain stopped
    and healing began.
    By the next morning the wound had disappeared completely.
    Having experienced
    the great potential
    ​of Christian Science,
    there would be no
    turning back.
