Are You Blocked Off From God?
by phil8888 on 2007-09-23
If you are not convincingly aware of the existence of God in your life, you are obviously blocked off from having a conscious contact with Him in some way. Do not despair. This is a common problem and I'd guess that 95 percent of all humans suffer from this God blockage problem, whether they are aware of it or not.
It is the things that make us human gone awry that causes this blockage from God. However, we can correct these problems and open ourselves up to a full knowledge of God's existence and the ability to put His will for us into full operation in our lives.
One of the beauties of having a working relationship with God is the benefit of His freely given guidance on all aspects of our lives. This problem of being blocked from God's guidance obviously leads to a whole host of problems in life. As I already mentioned, it is our out of control human problems that create these serious and life numbing blockages. They invariably involve something you are doing wrong in your life and will not face up to, or correct.
Take a serious and dead honest look at your life. This introspective process, if you are honest about it, will give you some strong clues about what you need to work on in order to develop a working relationship with God. For example, do you have a bad habit or addiction that controls your life? Do you harbor grudges against others that you will not forgive them for? Are there personal relationships in your life that are way out of whack that you will not give up or change? Have you caused another person some sort of damage and not made restitution? Is there some sort of fear in your life that controls you that cannot seem to break free of?
Or, have you clearly gotten a sense from God that you should be doing something and you refuse to do it?
Reviewing these areas of your life will give you some great clues to the problems that block you from God. Correcting them will put you on the road to a totally changed life.
Knowing God exists is a bit like knowing the wind exists. You cannot see the wind but you can feel it and see its interaction with things in the world around you. The same is true with knowing God. You cannot see Him but can feel His presence without any doubt. When blocked from God it is much like trying to feel the wind, or see its effects, while sealed up in an underground bunker. You are totally blocked off from it and have no idea if the wind is blowing or not. The same is true when blocked from God. You are immersed in a life of grudges, fears, obsessions, false ego and selfishness which prevents you from feeling God.
Having a working relationship with a loving God who will direct your life towards success in everything you touch is open to anyone, regardless of your personal or religious beliefs. It is not about religion, is about you and your God - period! This is a simple process. In fact it's so simple it escapes the majority of people trying to live and function in the world today where personal gain seems to be the thrust of life.
