We invite you to participate with us in a daily devotional time called “Your Daily Bread.” These daily devotions will come to you via our podcast network. It is through these daily podcasts that we hope you use to allow God to minister to your daily need enabling you to walk each and every day in the spirit of Christ.
Hello, my name is Paul, and I am the voiceover for a ministry provided to you by Jim Pug at God is Government called Your Daily Bread, taken from Christ's teaching of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6, verse 11. This is a daily devotion ministry focused not only on uplifting scripture, but scripture that will grow your spiritual connection with Christ. We hope that you receive these devotions to uplift you, encourage you, but most importantly, advance your knowledge base of the Holy Scriptures. Today's focused discussion will be on understanding the law of life and knowledge. The law of life was coined by author Farley Moat in his book People of the Deer, and popularized by Daniel Quinn to denote a system of laws that all beings are subject to, and which serve to foster life. In the story of B, Quinn writes, a biologist would probably say what I'm calling the law of life is just a collection of evolutionarily stable strategies, the universal set of such strategies, in fact. Quinn points out that this is a physical law, like gravity, not a commandment like thou shalt not kill, nor a legislative ruling like pay taxes. As he puts it, the latter two are written where only man can read them, in books, and that they can be changed by a vote, while the law of life is written in the fabric of the universe and cannot be broken. Those who don't follow the law simply won't live. This is so very true. To understand the law of life, we must come to grips with the definition of life itself. In doing so, we then can not only understand the law of life, but more importantly, we can live it. At the beginning of this law, we must recognize that we are the temple of our source, source inside of us, 100% of the time. This source is living in the soul given to us by Source himself. This soul contains all the knowledge that there ever was and ever to be. It is a vast database of our past, the present, and future. It contains all the details of the universe. It is the genius inside each of us. It is here that we meant to live our life in a constant state of being in spirit. It is here that we will live forever. Exists with or without this physical body. It never dies. It lived before we came into this physical body, in the knowledge of the source. It lives now inside us and can direct our every thought and action. It will live forever after we have moved through the physical death experience. It can heal and perform miracles. It has the power of God to co-create life experiences. It contains all the knowledge of the universe. It waits on us to allow controlling our lives. It is not ego because he who gave it has no ego. This is the law of life, the law of knowledge. As indicated in the story of Adam and Eve, knowledge is an opening of the mind to both good and evil. So knowledge is knowing we have both good and evil within us. Evil, not in the sense as one would define evil, an intention of causing harm or destruction to something or someone. Evil in the sense of our ability to be of self, to think we are God and can create anything that He can. In the opening of this chapter, we cited from a Course of Miracles four statements about the distortions of our creation. It tells us, first, we believe that what God created can be changed by our own mind. Second, we believe that what is perfect can be rendered imperfect or lacking. Third, we believe that we can distort the creations of God, including ourselves. Fourth, we believe we can create ourselves, and the direction of our own creation is up to us. A choice given to us by our source in the ability to think with free will about those things we know as truth and those things we know as false, which man has created. It is like living with two personalities, one that is of source, and the other is of us. Both can drive the bus at any point in time, but with only one giving us life, and the other giving us hardship, frustration, loneliness and death in the sense of not living, what we know to be life. It is through this knowledge that we know of opposites, law of duality, light and darkness, love and hate, prosperity and poor, healthy and unhealthy, cold and hot, appreciation and resentment, etc., etc. This is the law of knowledge. Thank you for joining us in this exploration of understanding the law of life and knowledge. Until next time, remember to keep the faith, stay strong, and continue to shine your light in the world.
