Before the beginning -
Before there was GOD -

Before the beginning -

during the time before time began - before there was GOD - when GOD was only a dream within the Mind of GOD - before GOD was GOD.

There was a thought -

A great nothingness - that contained a thought.

And the thought moved.

And the movement produced a disturbance in the nothingness.

The thought stretched itself - stretching the nothingness into something.

And Something became aware of the nothingness.

And Thought was aware of itself.

And Thought became Something.

And the nothingness became nothing.

And was nothing - was gone.

Thought stirred Something and became reality

Which had no name.

And GOD awoke and saw Something

Which had become Reality.

Reality, realizing GOD had awakened

Was formless

Until GOD thought Reality into existence

And became real.

And thus GOD came into being -

Reality came into being -

Creation was thought into being.

The Universe was thought into Reality.

Which became Something in the mind of GOD

Which was Real because God thought it into existence.

And Thought was Something

And was Real

In the Mind of GOD.

So I guess people reinforce God's reality by perceiving him... that's pretty cool! :)

This well-written poem causes beautiful reflection. It is perhaps more gnostic than my belief system, but definately my pondering. Thanks.
