Imagining Ourselves with Limitless Power

Many of us find it difficult to believe that we have limitless power. We constantly proclaim our limitations. We believe that it's socially acceptable to tell everyone about our imperfections. It's our way of confirming our victimization. And by confirming our victimization, we remain prisoners in our small, closed world where doubts rule.

Some of us believe this confirmation makes us like everybody else who think as we do. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter how many people say we have limitless power, we cannot will our minds to believe it about ourselves. To do so would completely alter the perceptions we have about ourselves and the world we live in.

Some of us might equate this type of thinking as spiritual heresy. We believe these beliefs about limitless power will plunge us deeper into self-victimization rather than liberate us from it. Surely, we opine to ourselves and others, if we think this way, something bad will happen to us. So we stop our search for the power, because of our fears.

Similarly, our limitations are nothing more than our beliefs about power. We are created with the universal equivalency of our Creator, at least insofar as our abilities to create ideas and express them in the visible world. In other words, like our Creator, we are able to create things from our thoughts.

Some illustrations of our creative power is expressed in our creations of the facsimile machine, telephone, computer, innovative medical and scientific achievements, and so forth. All these things came from the minds of humans like ourselves, who defied the collective self-imposed limitations of the world at that time. 

Moreover, until they were willing to do the creative work to birth new things in the visible world, people believed such power was nonexistent. In other words, since the world was unaware of the power, it meant that it didn't exist. 

Human limitations are the illusions of people who are unaware of life beyond their own experiences. We cannot accept something if we don't believe it's possible. And regardless to the number of times someone tells us that we have limitless power, we will return to our self-conceived victim beliefs. 

Each time we participate in the process of limited power, we do a disservice to ourselves by destroying the   will to search for the limitless power hidden beneath the victim beliefs guiding us in all our actions. In other words, we kill the creative power by our unwillingness to be open to new ideas.

Nevertheless, whenever someone extols us to examine limitless power, we don't believe this applies to us in the here and now. We have become too fixed on our own beliefs about limitations, and no one is going to tell us otherwise. The idea of limitlessness applies only to those beings who are beyond the illusions here on earth.

Many of us believe we are the children of parents with limitless power, but somehow they were unwilling to share it with us, which is illogical.  We are either created by a Creator with limitless power or we're not. If we are, which most of us believe, then our Creator gave us everything present within its consciousness.

This endowment includes the power to create something simply by conceiving and expressing it according to our liking. If we are not, which some people believe, then we must define how we acquired the power of creation. Either way, we have this power and we believe that we are powerless.

Meanwhile, the acceptance of limitless power is just as plausible as our accepting limitations. It's all occurring in our individual minds. In the main, we are greater than our human awareness.

Even though our self-victimization causes us to doubt our power, it's there nevertheless. Sadly, our lack of awareness only confirms our victimization. It's not a true form of the greater awareness available to us.   

The existence of power is found in each of us. Some of us discover it, while others ignore its presence. Today is the opportunity for a new human paradigm. It's our opportunity to move beyond the prophecies of gloom and doom and into a world of limitless power.

Whether we are aware of it or not, this is our temporary living quarters. There's no permanence, no security. It's a place where we can choose to live anyway we choose to, especially as it relates to our beliefs.

So while we're here, we can create mountains of self-victimization or oceans of enlightenment. It's our choice how we choose to live.

To understand life is to understand ourselves. If we only see a little light and much darkness, we must expand our capacity to bring more light into our lives so we can see the limitless power existing within us.
