If you want to know God

If you want to know God, do not consider yourself knowing God until you feel the ocean and the breeze blows your hair, and a tear falls from your eye simply because you’ve seen the sunrise and you know what real birth is like.  That is knowing God.  What is God?  We search, and in that search we have accepted we do not know – or perhaps we are separate from.  Where does God hide?  Where does God live? Nowhere and in all places. 
Beloveds, listen to us if you would.  You cannot find God searching for God.  What you can find are many experiences of almost.  To find God find what moves your soul.  Journey into it deeply.  Forget the world.  Fill your moments with your love of what you love.  There, is God.  Can you see the futility of living a life of dreams from the past?  Everything is before us, waiting like great fruits on the tree of life, waiting to be picked.  What type do you like?  How high can you reach?  Are you willing to climb?  Is there but one tree? 
Imagination plays such an integral and important part in our joy.  There is a goodness and a light and a frequency and a music and a melody and a world that is being offered every single soul, every manifestation of life on this earth.  You have so much to give.  Give to yourselves.  Love yourselves.  Create a life of simple pleasures and joys and let God fill in the spaces.  Yes, God will give you what you ask for.  Are you soul enough to take it? 
Rumi
