God as Cloud, III

Pictures are often taken of a “cloud” of activity within the human mind. The “cloud” of consciousness moves from one part of our brain to another as it thinks about different subjects. Catholic Fundamentalists understand that “cloud” is what The Programming Guide describes when it tells us, “We are made in the image of God.”

Our own tiny “cloud” of consciousness is vastly larger than any animal’s. Conversely, our individual “cloud” of thought is vastly tinier than God’s. Our “cloud” of thought is as much smaller than God’s as the tiniest cloud of a “thinking” animal is smaller than ours.

When we consider thinking about the similarity in function of the “cloud” to the vastly larger “cloud” of willful consciousness that is God The Programmer, we cannot help but draw closer to Him.

The size of God’s “Cloud” is as big as Solomon’s Temple, which we can easily see duplicated by googling “Sistine Chapel”. Our own, individual “cloud”, our own spirit, is a tiny puff of smoke.

We become humble as we realize more precisely how much greater God is than we are. We are staggered with gratitude as we realize how much A Power like Him loves us and wants us to have the joy of joining forever with He Who programmed us.
