Page 16 - Return into Paradise

5.

The universe that God created was not for humankind, it was created for God
and was a paradise. It was perfect. You will remember as a child playing with
bits and pieces, and creating a fantasy from them. You would have made
houses, and then added to that house to make it a home by adding more bits
and pieces, and finally by adding a doll or two to make it a family home. As a
child you would have played a variety of such games, in each case an
expression of your own creativity, an expression of your God likeness, always
drawing on your own ‘imagination’. Or is it imagination or a memory, a Spirit
memory of the act of creation being re-enacted but utilising the available bits
and pieces and human consciousness as the building blocks. As Spirit you are
part of that which created you, God, as a body you are also a part of those who
created you, your parents. Have you ever noticed children at play might often
destroy their creation while others will preserve and protect their work? This
could be an example of their inner conflict of their developing ego and their
Spiritual awareness. The ego develops through praise or criticism. The praise
will encourage the preservation whereas the criticism encourages the
destruction or a need to hide the production from cynical or critical eyes. And
then there is the other scenario where another child will dismantle or destroy
the project of the other child, often re-enacting actions that have been imposed
upon them. These situations are reflecting the healthy or unhealthy developing
egos. It seems that adult humans can still act out these emotions. There are
those who appreciate the creations of others, their art, their writing, their
design etc., and then there are those who will criticise or in some way destroy
their own creation or the creation of another. To take this topic a bit further,
within the creation in which you exist at this time there are those who
appreciate the creation of God and see its perfection and seek to preserve it.
Then there are those who are cynical and critical of God’s creation and can
only see what they consider flaws or imperfections. These latter seek to
destroy what is perfect and replace it with their synthesised version. Look at
the world human population, how much artificially grown produce is now
