The Proposal

A little thing to think about every morning

The Proposal

 

This is a proposal to humanity

To see what we all can do

Beginning with a thought of conviction

To help with each day we go through

 

We all seem locked in a struggle

Simply surviving this life we know

But could there be, more than we see

To help one and all as we go

 

See past the point of survival

To the true core of what is at hand

Could something be done, more to be won

Stopping fear and hate in the land

 

How easy it is to see the problem

When the results have gone to far

Throwing up our hands in futility

Not caring to see who we are

 

The problems you see in the world

Are the result of the product of thought

It is here we should seek a solution

In the light of the things we are taught

 

If possessions are your aspiration

This proposal will not be for you

Try seeing past this feeling of need

And know there is more you can do

 

A simple exercise each morning

Say to yourself when you are alone

A statement of love and conviction

So in your heart the words find a home

 

The words cannot be given you

Their meaning must come on their own

But guidelines may be given

So the way to you may be shown

 

Start with a simple understanding

Of the world you wish to now see

What is felt and acted with conviction

Is exactly what does come to be

 

Do not worry about what may happen

Set aside what this world seems to give

Act with faith you are never alone

Understand this you learn how to live

 

You must change your direction of site

If change you wish to now see

Understand this loving conviction

The first change must come within me

 

How easy it is looking outward

But fear’s seeds are planted within

For this material world to change

It is within the change must begin

 

There are those waiting for a savior

Or a prophet to do their part

Not seeing this world as a result

Of the intentions we hold in our heart

 

Did God place you here on this earth

Waiting on the action of another to do?

 Is there nothing for you to contribute?

Something you must see now in you

 

It starts with a belief in a purpose

The reason you have chosen to live

Focus on your understanding of God

Why to you life’s spark did He give?

 

We all claim to be created in an image

So what is this image you see?

What vision of God do you know?

Is it everything you hope it to be?

 

Caught up in this world of our making

Living here with the things we possess

While we worry about every one

Give up some to worry much less

 

Again it comes back to your site

What is it you hold within view?

This object determines your actions

In all that you say and you do

 

Stop for a moment and wonder

Why this world is in the state it is in

Ask yourself what you can do now

For a better world to start to begin

 

This world’s state is set by direction

The result of things that are done

We have the ability to change this

So the change we must be everyone

 

If you as a person want change

Worry not for what others may do

First change the world lying within

The first person to change must be you

 

Forget what the world seems to give

Focus on the person you wish now to be

If your Will is based on intention

You then change the person you see

 

What is this intention I speak of?

Why should our focus lie there?

Intention is the foundation of focus

Supporting the things you now bare

 

 What is your intention’s foundation?

What belief is your intention tied to?

This belief reflects your understanding

Of the person you see now as you

 

Your intention is the voice of purpose

What purpose has God given you?

You show your understanding of God

In all that you say and you do

 

Your are created in God’s image

God’s image must be reflected in you

Revealed to others through intention

Shown to all by the actions you do

 

Are we merely physical beings?

Is there a soul you see lying within?

The spirit is the truth to your being

Through this your peace you may win

 

 

You are created in God’s image

Again, what image of God do you see?

Every soul has been created perfect

Because this is what God chose to be

 

Has this God set about to acquire

The things lying here upon earth

Is this the God you see now?

Is this what your God sees as worth?

 

You are created in God’s image

Is this also what you wish to acquire?

If you profess a God of compassion

To this you are called to aspire

 

Oh, you will say God is perfect

A simple reason allowing you to give less

It is by this belief and conviction

You blame someone else for this mess

 

You may look to a savior or prophet

To come from heaven above

To suddenly change this world

Hoping to see a world full of love

 

If you are not part of the solution

Not choosing love in your heart

For this world to change for the better

From you hate and fear must depart

 

So what is now said of an answer?

For truth will always lie bare

You may become the solution or problem

So choose wisely for what you now care

 

Oh, but you have a savior

Or a prophet to show you the way

Upon this you profess a belief

Saying your soul in heaven will stay

 

To believe a savior for salvation

You must follow the example he gave

Then your belief is shown by example

Awakening the Christ within you are saved

 

 

Or should a prophet come down from heaven

Leading his people to heaven above

If heaven is a home to this God

Then it must be a dwelling of love

 

For you to live with God in heaven

No matter of your religious belief

For true religion has love’s foundation

Can you be this while causing such grief?

 

You are called to change the direction

The way you and this world will now go

For this world is a result of intentions

The result of the things that you sow

 

What you sow this world will then reap

All action follows thought at the start

Your thought follows your intention

So love’s intention must live in your heart

 

You show the God you worship

By the things in your heart you hold dear

Do you worship a God now of love

Or follow a God out of fear

 

Which God do you choose to believe in?

For by your beliefs you have chosen the way

Do you wish to see a world full of love?

Or do you choose in fear to now stay

 

God is much more than you know

God is more than the mind can now see

So act with compassion and love

Then a part of God you will then be

 

It was said you are gods in the making

What type of god do you choose to become

Will you become a god of love or fear?

It is up to you to choose either one

 

Do not wait for a change in the future

For what you think you will become

The change lies always within

It will happen to you everyone

 

 

 

Yes you are gods in the making

Are you a god of compassion or strife?

This heaven or hell you are creating

You choose now in this very life

 

Your time upon earth may be short

What if it were already at hand?

Which god would you choose now to follow?

With which would you choose now to stand?

 

Show to all a God of compassion

Not with words for words can lie

You reveal your God in your actions

So it is time to give love a try

 

Fear and hate can only destroy

With love your world is born anew

 A heaven or hell you may create

It will happen with each one of you

 

With intention founded on purpose

And purpose as a spiritual thing

Your God you may reveal to this world

If to it love you will bring

 

You may choose these words to think on

Or simply choose to pass them now by

Either way the results will come to you

Becoming the god you choose to now try

 

It is with love this proposal is given

It is with love I hope you will care

Change your world now for the better

Have faith in love if you dare
