Introduction
Dear reader in my previous book I was attempting to come to a greater awareness and understanding about the possibility of a creator or God-like entity designing our known universe and looking at possible evidence for such a truth. First looking at the physical universe and then glimpsing our spiritual universe and coming to a personal awareness that design was a more logical answer to the creation of the universe than random chance. That where there is a design there is a designer. I have come up against personal resistance in my journey to understand the idea that human beings, including myself are potentially the pinnacle of God’s creation. I do have a strong feeling developed through my journey so far that a God likely designed our universe, nature, animals and humans and naturally this has led me or opened me up to see the complexity in particular to the human itself. What I notice more is the complexity of universal laws, especially the physical laws governing the conditions for life and how they affect life and coming to an awareness that where there are laws there are law makers. This followed on to the awareness of spiritual laws and there complexity and it became apparent these laws are more focussed towards animals and humans rather than all the physical matter around us. This then led to the awareness of soul based laws that only governs human life and that we are so complex we have a whole set of laws pertaining to the human only.
The idea of God the parent started to surface and that if humans were the pinnacle of God’s creation then a loving parent or entity would prepare the universe for its children before creating the children. Chaos would play with life without concern or love where as a creator would plan for life with laws, care and love. My journey has naturally led me to the question are humans the pinnacle of God’s creation? Is the universe largely for us personally, the human being, and learning about our creative potential? Are we the most complex lifeform in the universe? These questions seem important to understand on some level in my heart and it has taken a year to build the desire to investigate these questions in more detail. Mainly because of many false beliefs I hold about this potential that has stopped me desiring to investigate this further such as arrogance that I am my own God, that I know better than God, that only I know what is best for me. It feels important looking back that these false beliefs and blocks had to be acknowledged and resolved to some extent before I could look at these next questions with a more open heart and mind and have some desire to investigate it. I had to accept that maybe I am still a child that is learning and that I don’t know much about what is best for me at present due to how little I know about love and God in particular. This seems to have opened up a desire to now investigate these questions. To gain more awareness about God’s laws pertaining to humans in particular with a desire to build faith through the experience that God is my parent and wants to love me and for me in turn to love. That I can trust God and start a greater friendship and relationship with God, that we are the pinnacle of God’s creation, that God is our parent and that God is good and hopefully take others through to this understanding with me.
