Trust God, he is there with us always

#newdaynewchapter is a Blog narrative started on March 1, 2021 co-founded by Kishore Shintre & Sonia Bedi, to write a new chapter everyday for making "Life" and not just making a "living"
Let us have a story. There was a young boy called Krishna staying in a village. Every year Krishna's parents took him to his grandmother's house for the summer break, and they would return home on the same train after two weeks. Then one day Krishna tells his parents: ′′ I'm grown up now, What if I go to grandma's house alone this year???" After a brief discussion parents agree. And here they are standing on the train station platform, greeting him, giving him one last tip through the window, as Krishna continues to repeat: ′′ I know, you've already told me so many times...!" Train is about to leave and father whispers:
′′ My son, if you suddenly feel bad or scared, this is for you!′ And he slips something into his pocket. Now the boy is all alone, sitting on the train, without his parents, for the first time. He looks at the scenery through the window that scrolls. Around him strangers hustle, make noise, enter and exit the compartment, he gets that feeling that he is alone.. A person even gives him a sad look. So this boy is feeling more uncomfortable now.
And now he's scared. He lowers his head, snuggles in a corner of the seat, tears rise to his eyes. At that point he remembers his father putting something in his pocket. With a trembling hand he seeks to grope this piece of paper, he opens it: "Son, don't worry, I am in the next compartment." This is how it is in real life too. When God sent us in this world, all by ourselves, he has also slipped a note in our pocket, it says " Don't worry I too am travelling with you and I am within your reach, just call me when you need me"
Having faith in God always we never feel panicky or depressed, it directly affects our physical and mental health as well. Therefore trust God and trust that he is there always with us in this journey called life. t’s just a matter of belief, for what we believe in we will seek it up to the end. All our lives we try to find God externally but in fact we never could find God anywhere, because we were looking at the wrong place. God resides within, and its always been there even when we had no faith in ourselves.
And the particular manner in which we want to see and believe God , the same manner we perceive his existence. So if you believe God is with you than its true he is, and if you think God eludes you, than yes that’s true too. Belief is a matter of conviction not faith. No one can make us agree more than ourselves where we wanna see God to exist and appear. Mind is very powerful and with our thoughts we create our reality. Everything is thought based. We are not what we think we are, rather we are what we think we are not.
Remember that God is just an embodiment of this creative construct of mind. Whatever is and isn’t is not the inquiry rather faith and belief in God is out to test over faith and belief in self. We don’t see things as they are ,we see things as we are. No matter what one tells the believers , they will resort to their conventional state of enquiry. God is nowhere to be found as none looked for God inside themselves. Those who find their true selves and get enlightened become aware of what is and what isn’t.
We have read some spiritual teachings that tell us so, as God’s promises for us. I have often speculated that God may very well be there almost all the time for those who do things like meditate, pray frequently, and acknowledge God in so many of the things that they do. But people can go astray, you know? People can separate themselves from God by actions. Some prophets “walked with God”. But I feel God almost continually with me. There seems to be an great gap between people who walk with only “an idea” of God, and those who know that God, or “the truth” is a person. God is known to me as a person, and one with a mind. The mind is the light or spirit. God knows the commitment of each one. You can know that Life. Cheers!
