Everyday Spirituality

Sexuality and God

posted by Cheryl Petersen

Womanhood and manhood are not biological destinies. As we tap into our spirituality, we can balance the intellectual and intuitive, home and work, family and career.

Many religions depict God as Father-Mother, with all the wonderful qualities embraced by man and woman. We read in 21st Century Science and Health, “Spirit is our primordial and ultimate source of being. God is our Father-Mother, and Life is the law of our being.” I think this ideal attributes to successful people today.

The status of humanity is being raised. Woman and man are not limited to sexual organs. God, Spirit, doesn’t have physical organs. We can identify with Spirit and freely express our spirituality with all the qualities normally attributed to male and female.

Pruning Out the Useless
Down the road from where I live is a grape vineyard. Uncared for. Neglected. The trellised vines are still standing, but the amount of fruit produced is negligible. Farmers know that they need to prune their trees and plants in order to be productive. Excessive limbs and vines are cut out so they
