The key to all that is – is inside you.  God, your Creator, resides as an Image in your deepest core.

Metaphorically, that Image of God was lost and forgotten when humans (created as images of God Himself), Adam and Eve, sought something more than God, in the external fallen world, symbolized as the Tree of Knowledge.  They didn’t believe God’s warning to look no further, and to not seek any more knowledge than what they already had.

Therefore, the key to all of life is to look no further than that Image of God inside you that has always been there, even though you forget or don’t see.

Be healed!  Seek first the Kingdom of God inside!
