For this week's message, I wanted to walk you through a recent experience I had, and then dive into scripture describing the concept of rebirth and our godly potential.
So I went viral this week. 872 likes on a single video. {I know, big whoop.}
I was not expecting this in the LEAST. I had no intention of making news; I just was speaking what was in my heart one morning.
I was sitting down, scrolling through videos in my gallery in my bedroom. I came across one from earlier last week, where I captured the sunset from my back deck. The sunset was right at the point of the mountain, and the video footage captured the ambiance from the sun, and the color in the sky. The rest of the image, below the mountain point was blackened out like a silhouette. I found myself searching for sunset themed audio to pair with it, and suddenly I found myself forming these words in my mind, that perfectly expressed my current space in my journey.
This is what I spoke, and I think it is something that at our depths, we can all sense truthfulness in it from our inner knowing.
"In the space between light and dark, that's where we find Her, and ultimately find ourselves."
(Feel free to add in "him" or "her" or even "them").
I recalled in that moment that the twilight space at sunset and the dawn at sunrise have always been a space in which I felt highly sensitive and connected to the divine. The in between. In my darkest moments, I have felt God's love, so powerful, meeting me at my depths. Recognizing truth where it lies within those depths, sighting the light in the dark - like that of the moon and the stars - and helping me immerge from the black and ascend back into the light of day. And that transition point is where pivotal change has happened for me.
Not only did I experience a sense of God's love for me, and an aware of the vastness of creation in those moments, but I also experienced a sense of my own inner knowing. More importantly, I found a sense of my own divinity within my soul. The eternal part of me that stemmed from these greater beings, parents of my spirit, which give me the capacity to step into my birthright - my knowledge of who I am as a literal descendant and child of the Almighty gods. The realization of the potential I have inside, to immerge from the depths of this limited state and into one of higher understanding. It doesn't come over night or all at once, but line upon line, we can begin to see the true sense of godliness in each of us. Our ability to overcome all pain, to be present within our being, to find our true nature amidst all of the hustle and bustle and chaos in our world. To truly embrace who we are at our core. Children of Gods.
I had someone say to me the other day, "Krystal, you are not becoming a God. You are already a goddess, today."
That made me reflect back on a discussion a past professor of mine, Robert C. Line, guided for us. He explained that perhaps, seeing as we stemmed from our Father and Mother in Heaven, that we hold their spiritual DNA, and are coming to possess immortal bodies as they do, perhaps even in our flesh, we can consider ourselves to be literal offspring of deity.
Now, take or leave this next part. Whatever sits well with you. This is just his and my midrash speaking.
He described that perhaps the fact that Adam and Eve were physically created by the Great Elohim (plural) and were still in the presence of their Heavenly Parents in the Garden of Eden.., perhaps they were physically begotten of Them, from the literal womb of the Mother. So seeing as how, we are literal descendants of Adam and Eve, perhaps we literally hold physical DNA from our Heavenly Parents - that we are literally a physical state or form of gods in the now.
So back to what my new friend shared with me. (Going into staggered poetry mode now).
...
We are gods in the now, not just gods in the making.
We have not yet received our true anointing and crowning into the next world (debatable).
But we hold that potential within ourselves.
In this very moment.
With every breath we breathe.
We breathe out that same breath of life that was given to us
From the Spirit, ruach Herself.
...
The life that we breathe into our babies at birth.
The life that we present to them as they step into this new world.
Another realm outside our womb.
And yet they are ours.
Our physical offspring.
...
Perhaps it is not all that different
From our spiritual birth
Or the physical birth of our first parents
From the Mother's womb.
...
It only makes sense, that the pattern we see here
Also existed there
And that the natural rebirth into a higher self
Into the heavenly space
Will take us right back to the Mother
Symbolically into Her womb
Back into Hers and the Father's presence
To dwell with them
Forever
...
And while we are on the subject of the womb and rebirth...
Let's look at some scriptures for a moment and see if we can't find similarities for ourselves. This is Christ speaking. Pay attention to what he is articulating and be open to various interpretations and come to your own conclusion. Take my midrash for whatever you will.
JOHN 3
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, { A K A Y e a , y e a - y e s , y e s }
I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Are we talking strictly about baptism here? What does baptism represent? A REBIRTH.
What do the waters of life (living waters) remind us of?
The waters rushing to bring new life into the world... the amniotic fluid from the womb.
...
Christ continues...
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
That is a statement!
8 The wind { R U A C H } bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth:
Like the sound of the Mother's womb?
Repetitive, muffled, like the heartbeat? Fluid, constant, ever flowing?
so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Sounds like we are talking about physical, heavenly birth to me.
9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
Ooh, burn. Do we know our own stuff?
11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
Heavenly things. Celestial things.
Is he also suggesting that our earthly patterns mimic that of heaven? In regards to the womb?
{the term used for "he gave his" is edōken, simply meaning give - which does not specify gender, and could refer to both Mother and/or Father.}
So God gave {his /her /their}
only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Let me just ask, who begot YOU?
Whose only begotten Son are we talking about here?
I believe it can refer to both the Father and the Mother.
She who begot him with help by the Father.
...
So back to the poem.
The spaces between.
Light and dark.
Birth and rebirth.
Like the falling and the rising sun.
...
The womb who carries us (physically or at least symbolically)
From space to space
The transition period between our
pre-earth life, our mortal life, and our eternal lives
...
The beings who created us to become like Them
We already are like them
And they guide us to greater understanding of
The sensation of their hands in our universe
In all that breathes
Ever aware, ever watchful
And the understanding of
Not becoming, but BEING
Finding within ourselves
Our capacity, our potential, and our godliness
To BE LIKE THEM
...
