The Awakening

There are some who suggest that I have a role to play in the ultimate elevation of human consciousness. That I and others like myself shall act a catalyst to usher in a golden age of reason and understanding. If this is true, than your future is indeed bleak for I am a poor vessel for such a cause.

This one thing I know, your kind is at a crossroad and its future hangs by a thread. I have no knowledge that can stay your hand and keep the thread in tact. Greater masters than I have left their mark upon this world and yet you find yourselves at a precipice. The faithful pray in vain for divine intervention not realizing that the very act denies the faith that they claim to espouse.

You have already been given all things. How can I, or any other add to this amount?

Why ask for food when your plate is already full? Why ask for faith until you have acted on what you have already received? It is the application of faith which transforms it into knowledge. Until this occurs, no additional faith can be added and growth cannot take place. To depart this life with your faith in tact is to have not grown. Do not tell me what you believe, tell me what you have done.

You live in a play dough world that yields readily to your will. You level mountains and build sky scrappers. You fly across continents with little thought of the distance. You could have built an Eden and yet you choose to construct this world with the bricks of lust and the mortar of greed. Now that the object of your own design has come to consume you, you call upon higher intelligences for intervention. And what if God, or a higher power did intervene on your behalf, what would you have learned from your actions?
