The philosopher Kant, quite early in his lone but monumental quest to show that man may claim true knowledge about his world, accepted that it is futile to try to prove that God exists. Instead, he took conscience as sufficient proof of God's presence in us. A deeply pious man all his life, he resolved that we must simply live as if God was real and so take hold of God's reality in our lives.
The Master states this truth so simply: "I am in the Father and the Father in me. We must work the works of Him Who sent me, while it is day." We cannot see God from afar - we uncover Him within us as we attune to Him in mind, heart, word and deed. As we "imitate" God, so does He become actual for us. The answer to those who sneer that we live in a fool's paradise is in our "works", the way we live our lives. There is God made manifest for all to see. What we could not prove beforehand, we prove by demonstration.

So unclutter your consciousness about the reality of God and step forth confidently and lovingly as the child who inherits His kingdom.
