For Holy Week-The Christ I Know and Love

It’s tricky. Am I a Christian? I seek to be like Jesus, in becoming one with God. He translated the Power & Glory of God into earthly Love & Healing, even raising the dead, to demonstrate this connection. The Christ in Jesus lives inside of me, inside of everyone. Christ is waiting to be unleashed from the blockage of ego patterns. I experienced the Christ once in a dream. The Power of Light Shining simultaneously from outside and inside my soul. The feeling of Union- of love so great it passed any understanding. I experienced the Christ in my life. A series of events opened up my being to the sense of Light, streaming through me. The Light wasn’t barren but full of Life, full of Love. I only wanted to praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow! I had stated my willingness to open to the Light inside of me, to serve God, the ever good. And then my heart burst with light, with joy, with gratitude, realizing all the Greatness of God. I was meditating without closing my eyes. I was praising God in every breath. Somehow this experience became covered up again. I hope for it to return. So I do not experience Christ as someone else dying and raising from the dead and thereby, saving me from my sins, as defined by the church. I experience Christ as a living power within, who shows me how to connect with God. Christ cheers me on, as, through grace and effort, I rise up from the tomb of the ego and become fully alive. Then that Light shines through as expressions of love, gratitude, service, praise, prayer and glorification of God. Christ Lives in me and you. Glory to Mother Father God in the Highest. In this way I am a Christian. And a Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, and pagan.
