Thought about Moses lately? Living on the Spiritual Basis the
purpose of life has become clear, to establish and maintain a conscious
contact with Our Father. Moses, according to the narrative, had a pretty
stout conscious contact with God. The relationship so deep, God chose
him to receive the Ten Commandments, the new blueprint for living. Moses
was not chosen at random, God chose him because of the strength,
unwavering faith and belief he demonstrated in every area of life. His
willingness to go to any extreme for a spiritual experience; taking
some pretty unpopular stands against recognized spiritual authority
along the way, demonstrating his love of, and faith in God.
The Moses narrative happened around 3,500 years ago, give or take, and
amazingly he holds a revered position in Judaism, Christianity and
Islam; no small accomplishment, but what significance could this have
for us today, in the “modern” world?
God was so
moved He appeared to Moses in physical form! To be like Moses we must set aside prejudice
and preconceived notions and study with our hearts as well as our mind,
standing ready to kick sacred cows to the curb. The greatest barrier to spiritual growth is a closed mind. We
must keep an open mind and heart, listen and learn daily, pray and
meditate with joy, never out of a sense of duty if we are to grow and
prosper in the light. In so doing we become more like Moses, admit it,
though it would scare the bejezus out of you, a speaking burning bush
would be pretty cool, so to borrow from a commercial tag line: Got
Moses?
