I had a thought about the weaknesses of our personality.  How easy it seems for us to look at another and rattle off all their faults and weaknesses.  Then I drifted off to the thought that these personality behaviors are the good things in our lives that keep us growing.  Sorry!  I waited too long to write about my revelation this morning and it is fading.  Just as well because I was planning on sharing this with a fried at work and I thought could use the revelation.  Ego!  Gets me lost all the time.

Anyway, "Ye must be born again."  The Christian concept of being born again is asking forgiveness for your sins and being baptized.  Then you are urged to "To forth and sin no more."  Wow!  That is very tough to do.  In the Order we were told to "live to our highest knowing."  That means to me that if you do something that you know is wrong then you have sinned.  You are responsible for living every moment consciously aware of what you think, say and do.  No slacking!  And "sins" are always forgive but thanks to karma, you will be challenged with another opportunity to test your strength to do or think or say what is correct in a similar situation. 

Anyway, our personal weaknesses are our challenges and opportunities to live to our highest knowing.  For example I know I am a negative person so I try to be pleasant and look at the bright side and have even been known to laugh at myself.  That negativity is still there in my makeup but does not rule me anymore.  That is called transformation.

So the whole point of my rambling is to state my belief that we all sin and fall short of the Glory of God but we keep going everyday, every moment learning how God works through out strengths and weaknesses.  God really does love us.  We are always forgiven.  The greatest and unforgivable sin is not accepting Gods complete love and forgiveness.  We can turn ourselves away from God but God never turns away from us.  The Creator made us and we live within our creator.

I don't have the date that I wrote this.  I can tell that I was working on my Tarot because of the strengths and weaknesses.  I used God alot but please know that I meant God & Goddess.
