The \u201cNew Spirituality\u201d is defined by the author as \u201ca new way to experience our natural impulse toward the Divine, which does not make others wrong for the way in which they are doing it.\u201d)<\/em><br \/>\nSunday is <strong>Message Day<\/strong> on the blog. Monday through Friday we look at contemporary events and day-to-day occurrences at the intersection of Life and the New Spirituality\u2026but on Sunday, we reserve this space for a specific teaching derived from the material in <em>Conversations with God<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>This week\u2019s message: <em>Living on the Edge of Tomorrow<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\nTaken together the <em>With God<\/em> series offers a comprehensive explanation of the totality of the human experience. Nothing quite like it exists anywhere in contemporary spiritual literature, and the books are now considered a treasured resource for all true seekers. They have fostered a worldwide phenomena called The New Spirituality, inviting humanity to create and embrace a new cultural story about God, about Life, and about each other.<br \/>\nThe texts explore concepts so theologically daring that if we live them, we&#8217;ll be living on the edge of tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nWhat does it mean to live on the Edge of Tomorrow? It means stepping out of Today&#8217;s Story and writing a new script, creating a new reality, seeking a newer world.<br \/>\nSome people live on the Edge of Today. They are very brave. They have one foot in and one foot out of the Cultural Story of This Day and Age. Yet CWG invites us to go beyond this bravery, to A Place of Larger Courage. It invites us to not only pull our back foot out of Today, but to plant our front foot in front of Tomorrow.<br \/>\nWhat lies &#8220;in front of Tomorrow&#8221;? We do not know. Some say we can only hope, we can only dream. I think there is more we can do. I think we can create. That is why I am asking you to move from the edge of today to the edge beyond tomorrow, for that&#8217;s where True Creation lies.<br \/>\nYou see, we have already created Tomorrow. That work is finished. We&#8217;ve done it with all of the thoughts, words, and actions of Yesterday. So the real challenge, the real excitement, the real opportunity is to look Beyond Tomorrow, and to begin creating that. This day, this hour, this very moment you are creating the Time Beyond Tomorrow.<br \/>\nThe time and space Beyond Tomorrow is the Province of Visionaries. If we truly choose to seek a newer world, we must all lay claim to this Province. We must all declare ownership. And we must do it now.<br \/>\nWe must not only create, but envision. This is the next step of truly great humans, of Highly Evolved Beings.<br \/>\nHighly Evolved Beings are not satisfied with merely creating Tomorrow. They have already mastered watching what they think, taking care in what they say, and controlling what they do. Now they&#8217;re working at the outer rim of all that. They&#8217;re standing at the Edge of Tomorrow, using their Imagination &#8212; the breathtaking Tool of the Divine &#8212; to envision what comes after &#8220;Next.&#8221;<br \/>\nWe can all do this work. We can all become Highly Evolved Beings. We can do it in a moment. In a split second. Creating the way a species evolves does not take time, it takes will.<br \/>\nWho do you see your Self as? What, truly, is your Highest Self? When you &#8220;recreate yourself anew in the next grandest version of the greatest vision ever you held about Who You Are,&#8221; what do you envision? When you look beyond tomorrow to visions of a New You and a New World, what do you see? Anything? A blank wall? A mish-mash?<br \/>\nIf you were clear about all this you could be at cause in the matter of its manifestation. And you could share your vision with others, so that they, too, might glimpse a distant future, and set a path towards its brightest promise.<br \/>\nWill you begin this work with me?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(This weblog creates, for us all, a chance to meet at the interaction of Life and the New Spirituality.
