and flu season would affect every person on the planet, for then health is determined merely by the germ or environment. The X factor of health is within. Our health stems from the inner workings of our mind, body, and soul. When we are out of balance or engaging in risky behaviors, we become easy pickings for illness.
This passage can be used in all manners of life, not solely physical health. If it is happiness you seek, you will find it within, not from what you consume or witness around you.
With the empowerment of these teachings and true understanding of them, not for condemnation, but for hope in our daily walk with God, we can rest easy, enjoy life, and continue seeking the mysterious ways of our Creator and creation. We can truly open our hearts and minds to a new layer of meaning, seemingly buried beneath misconception, fear, and narrow mindedness. Jesus showed us the way, we just became lazy in our readings and our practices.
It is time to celebrate the vast, dynamic and colorful creation we experience. It is time to trust our hearts to know that whatever strange method that vibes with us to find and live in the Kingdom of God is, undoubtedly, ordained by God. No longer judging others for their style of prayer, service, or temple we can remove remaining, unnecessary stress and uncertainty from our own paths.
Your health and the blessing of God are in your hands. The work has been done for you; enjoy the experience of living in the now and forget archaic, fear-based misconceptions of our religions. Hold tightly the feeling of joy and wonder within the things you know through pure, unbridled experience and you will hold the Kingdom of God in your palm.
If one looks to the words of Jesus with renewed optimism and embraces mystery, they will surely dwell, even in this earthly life, in the Kingdom of God with fearlessness, wisdom, health, and joy. God hid the treasures of the universe where no man could twist or destroy them—in the hearts of each individual human being. To understand what Christ truly meant, start with this teaching and discern the rest using this as your guidepost.
