within every human
I hope there is a piece of God within every human. I hope that deep within every person there is a glimpse of God; pure love; the ability of growth and caring. I must live in faith of that love; I must seek within the eyes of every human the eyes of God. Within every heart the heart of God. Within every hand the hand of God reached out.
We can choose not to act on the love within us. We can choose not to be the love we bear. But I must believe that we carry within us God even when we do not act as if we did.
I will listen. I will speak out when I disagree. I will hold you in my arms. I will protest when I am not treated with respect. I will hear your story. I will try and understand. I will try in every moment to love you. It might not get me to heaven.
I believe in having my eyes fixed on God. I believe that my eyes can not be parted from humanity if I want to see God. If I claim to see God but do not listen; if I claim to see God, but do not speak in honesty; if I claim to see God, but refuse to see you, I wonder what God I am looking at.

I guess, it's your own subjective imagination, for the Holy Scriptures only can tell you how and how the Living God really is.
Sadly, that so many even so-called 'Christians', or at least they claim it to be, are thinking they are so cool having all these 'creative' and 'so independent' thoughts about God, although they they don't know God, for if they would know God they would live in Obedience and Love to Jesus Christ.
We are a generation, where the image and the being of 'The God' becomes a mere speculation.
It's the end of the world as we know it, like the song goes.
Have mercy on us, Jesus Christ, and deliver us from ourselves!
