Spirit, Soul and Body

If we are indeed soul living in a human body, what is the body actually for?

Is the goal of soul to become as human as possible, and when it does this, it then finds that it has also now become as Godly as possible? And perhaps this process is the same as with God himself. God by becoming us as soul, and by creating soul from himself, he can then also become more of himself, more Godly himself, as we become more Godly, by becoming more humanly.

What a paradox, where does truth lie amongst all of this, please, you might ask me?

Truth is at the centre of all things, in the heart of all things, and of course truth is only ever arising from love. Love contains all truth, and all truth springs from love and is enlivened by and sparked into existence by love itself. And so soul becomes human, as it embraces love.

The human is no more than a receptacle for love, the love from and of soul for others and for itself. Love for its human side, and love for other humans, and love for its soul, and love for all other souls, and of course love for God. And so also with God, the soul is no more than a receptacle for God's love for him to love.

He created soul so he could also love himself in soul, and to love and know himself outside of himself, and thereby for God to know himself by experiencing himself as himself, but remaining outside of himself at the same time, and through the connection of love to himself, and from himself, and by and through his own creation. God separated himself, only so that in the separation, he could be himself more fully.

Love is always the fuller picture, that we can see when we know ourselves within God, and then connect back to him from the love so developed in us. Never worry too much about even trying to be your higher self, just act from love, and your higher self will follow the love that it is coming from.

Your higher self even though it is a part of God himself, still has the freedom of movement or not to connect back to the heart of God or not. This connection of a part of God to the heart of God is achieved when soul or the created separated part of God consciously allows this reconnection to God's heart, and so helps it to beat through God's other parts with the love in God's own heart. This is what God wanted to achieve to consciously happen in his own parts rather than unconsciously.

God's parts are separately individualised to be only themselves, but they need to realise they still remain a part of God, and can always reconnect back to
