The last sentence: “Reality transforms around beings who consistently choose the divine pattern.” I have experienced this a few times in my life. However, this year it seems to happen nearly every hour of the day. My searching led me to pray that Jesus show himself to me which I think led me to you. Reading your work as well as some other writings you recommended has helped me to get in touch with my 10 year old self who told my dad “I don’t need to go to church today. God lives in me as me.” And boy oh boy has this past year been a magical time. There is not a minute that goes by that I am not grateful for the lessons I am learning and the events that are unfolding. Thank you EKO. ❤️🙏🏼
This is beautiful. Thank you. When I have to make a decision I always ask myself, am I deciding from a place of love or a place of fear? That always helps to guide me. ❤️🙏🏻
At night I often have trouble going back to sleep when I wake up. I often go in my mind to one of the miracles of Jesus in the Bible and put myself there. At that moment. I try to experience being present. Sights, sounds and a “presence “ of Jesus. It’s hard. At the loaves and fishes, my idea of what that miracle looks like and operates stops the whole thing. My human idea is insufficient. I try with the other ones too. I do go back to sleep. What you have written and your art gobsmacks me. The looking at it as a cooperation between the Divine already in us as a connection with the Divine God has discombobulated me. I have never thought nor lived my Christian life aware of that. I am a landscape artist so I am moved visually your art and brief sentences says it all so clearly. Thank you.
I am so grateful for your wisdom in this time. So few people have known what you share. The masses are seeing this in bits pieces and the world is shifting. Your words touch places internally that few are capable of accessing. The world is so hungry for this.
Wow! This is so beautiful and SO TRUE! Light workers around this blessed planet are working hard to manifest everything you have written about here. We are moving in that direction of not just knowing but experiencing our divinity. Thank you for the truth you have shared.
As one of many survivors of a near-death experience (NDE), I can confirm first-hand that the consciousness is independent of the physical body and can meet God. Your description of what I call the Spirit-Directed Believer is very welcome and long overdue to be recognized.
You should also recognize that any two or more of these Spirit-Directed Believers who meet together constitute the Church that Jesus described, that the gates of Hell will not prevail against. Please realize the difference between that Church and the "institutional church" of power structures and rules you have described that stifle and suffocate the work of the Spirit. Just think - all the Spirit-Directed Believers who read your posts are part of the Church Jesus will defend!
Beautiful. Your story took me to the edge of the river, where Gideon was choosing warriors. When God told him to choose between men who drank like animals and the men who drank from the stream like a man.
You see moments like this in the stories you presented today.
They’re important.
And most times all the difference.
I’m trying to have conversations like this with my Christian friends.
Friends I have had for many years can only answer my simple questions with something that might be equivalent to answering a six-year-old in Sunday school class. It’s upsetting.
It feels like the sower and the seed parable lately watching cares of the world or birds snatch it away before it can even take root.
And so many times recently feeling the need for parables even more trying to describe “this war“ to the people in my life.
It feels like they’re all playing on old movie screens and it’s not even good reception. They’re just stuck in that routine like one of the characters that you find on the journey through Pilgrim’s Progress.
Consider in the scriptures the tabernacle of God in the wilderness… It’s also a picture of us?
The veiled presence of God?
Like ours? “And He, the comforter, will be IN you.“
Our temples/Tabernacles of flesh on earth. An encampment with men?
“ glorious is God with us”!
If I had no other scripture and only that one… Imagine?!
Thank you, friend. You have stimulated a wonderful internal conversation this morning.
And to all of the beautiful readers here:
I’m so glad you’re all here.
Your words also are like wind under wings.
God bless you, EKO. And God bless your lovely readers.
Great insightful article. Yes we have been taught forever that we are nothing but an evolved animal. And that all things are scarce and limited that way they can be monetized and controlled.
Jesus said we could do everything He did and more because He was returning to the Father.
People near and after death experiences return to life with a whole new perspective that we are all much much more than our corporality and no longer have a fear of death.
"Man is naturally a dreamer, but science is sobering him so that religion can presently activate him with far less danger of precipitating fanatical reactions."
Thank you, yet again, for providing me with the opportunity to recall - inspired by pictures/ -phrases used in your writings - some truths learned, others being introduced, encouraged, and solidified, along with other priniples coming inot view, to welcome into the mix of the Divine Presence which, in retrospect, I see has been attending to me all along. Blessings to you, and all who walk in this community.

So true. And so easily forgotten. How many remember they can use the interface?
"Jesus spoke to the part of him that was never paralyzed".
I have parts of me that are paralyzed.
Sending love to you, EKO!
It is easy to confuse redemption and salvation.
Redemption is the price that God (all three parts) paid to buy you out of bondage for your sins (see Isaiah 50).
Salvation is the healing salve of the Great Physician.
He can heal you!
I wish I knew who you are. I’ve said this before. Not so you can be my guru, but because I am curious as to the path which brought you here.
message over messenger.
but someday I’ll share my story.
I feel the exact same way! Would LOVE to know who you are...
I am so grateful for your wisdom in this time. So few people have known what you share. The masses are seeing this in bits pieces and the world is shifting. Your words touch places internally that few are capable of accessing. The world is so hungry for this.
So many blessings. ❤️🔥
Divine clarity! 🙏🏻💚

I love this and the illustrations too. I'm looking forward to the day you share your story.
Thank You EKO I needed that today!
