Lake Itasca is the source of the Mississippi River.
From this humble mouth, the river flows 2,340 miles, touching ten states. It’s tributaries form the total or partial drainage for 32 states between the Rocky and
Appalachian Mountains.
Like all bodies of water, any drop within is a piece of the whole.
So it is with human souls.
God is Lake Itasca. You are a drop in the mighty Mississippi.
You may believe you are separated from God, but this is only your mental delusion. A drop of the Mississippi in New Orleans is connected to the water in Lake Itasca.
You may believe you are separate from others, but a drop of the river in Minneapolis is the same water as a drop in St. Louis. You can believe you’re separated but you’re always part of the whole.
God’s consciousness includes all creation. And you are part of that. You are INSIDE that. You marinate in God. God permeates every thought in your mind and every cell in your body and every person, place and object in your world. Your consciousness cannot perceive anything that is not a piece of God.
“My Father and I are one.”
Focusing on that is the same as visiting the source of the Mississippi.
You’re not just a tourist.
It’s your birthplace. It’s your birthright. It’s your heritage.
It’s your home.
