Spirit Speaks

I believe in the “Big Good Thing.”

In The Secret Garden, after Colin asks Susan Sowerby, “Do you believe in Magic?”, she tells him:

“That I do, lad. I never knowed it by that name, but what does th’ name matter’ ..... th’ same thing as set th’ seeds swellin’ an’ th’ sun shinin’ made thee a well lad an’ its th’ Good Thing. It isn’t like us poor fools as think it matters if us is called out of our names. The Big Good Thing doesn’t stop to wirrit, bless thee. It goes on makin’ worlds by th’ million--worlds like us. Never thee stop believin’ in th’ Big Good Thing an’ knowin’ th’ world’s full of it —and’ call it what tha’ likes...:”
—The Secret Garden, a children’s novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett

For most of my life, I’ve called the “Big Good Thing” God or Father or Jesus. But this great holy, loving, transcendent, omnipotent, ever-present being is also called Buddah, Great Mother, Krishna — the names go on and on. It doesn’t matter what you call God, she’ll love you anyway. What matters is how you live your life: I believe that the highest form of worship is service to others.

Please share your personal spiritual experiences and insights, poetry and meditations. All beliefs are welcome; with these restrictions:
1. No devil worship, or other forms of belief that are not worshipping the “Big Good Thing.” whatever you personally happen to call it.
2. Don’t express the opinion that other spiritual paths are inferior to yours. Tell us what you believe and how it’s made you a better person—don’t tell other people that what they believe is wrong. The best way to show that your path is a good path is to live a life of love and service as a good example to others.
