Sky Fits Heaven was the seventh track from the Ray of Light CD and released as a single on March 3, 1998. “Fate fits karma so use it, That’s what the wise man said to me, Love fits virtue so hold on to the light, That’s what our future will be.”
The following insights came to me on December 26, while driving across the eastern plains of Colorado. (Some came even later.)
-
If any person tries to convince another person that Christ known as Jesus had a message more important than Unconditional Love, take some time to get to see that person, and you will see that there is a dark spot in that person’s heart, a void of love, compassion and complete understanding. There may be prejudices blocking that person’s heart, or their personality may include challenges around absolute love.
-
After Christ left, some people used his name to start wars, create fear in the hearts of many and take over native lands. Remember that Christ was not present during these events and his message did not support this type of behavior.
-
After Christ left some people created different versions of his message and called it Christianity. Each interpretation, created by man, brought a new faction or denomination. Some descriptions were written with good intentions, while others had not-so-good intentions. Most were designed to control others through fear, while others were created to say it’s okay to judge certain groups of people. Remember, Christ did not approve of these denominations or their teachings, so it’s unclear if they’re accurate, correct, or trustworthy of the Christ name. If a particular sect of Christianity doesn’t promote Unconditional Love, then one should move on until they find one that does.
-
People have interpreted the Bible in different ways primarily because of the way it was written. It’s possible that the scripture is not complete, or mistranslated. Some chapters and quotes from Christ may be missing altogether, which may have been intentional. Keep this in mind as you listen to anyone’s interpretation. Know that their message is not complete and we may not have all of the details.
-
People who choose to follow Christ should spend less time worshiping Christ, and more time living in true Christ Consciousness.
-
A person does not have to follow another person or any denomination of Christianity to become Christ-like.
-
The followers of Christ should not wait for his return to heal the world. They’ve already been given the wisdom, knowledge, and tools needed to change the world on their own. They should take it upon themselves to stop all wars, feed the hungry, and do the right thing.
-
Humanity should focus more on its ability to create, and less on its inclination to be destructive. We are all, each one of us, creators and possess the likeness of the universal God.
-
Christ or the energy of “Christ Consciousness” is a method by which Light and Unconditional Love come to the Earth. Christ Consciousness exists on Earth primarily to bring a change of consciousness. This can take place in any culture, with any spiritual practice.
-
Regardless of one’s religion, faith, belief, or non-belief in God, practice Unconditional Love every single day. It will change your life and the lives of everyone around you, for the better.
When I was a little boy growing up in North Carolina, I was born into a faith that was very oppressive and based on a tremendous amount of fear. I was led to believe that God forced me into this life and then set before me a list of impossible rules, which when failed, would send me straight to hell. I couldn’t understand how any God could create such an existence. It had entrapment written all over it.
As a young boy, I lived in a constant state of fear and worry. My life on earth was a living hell. As I continued to age, this way of thinking didn’t make very much sense to me. I remember thinking to myself that if I had known ahead of time, all of the barriers and restrictions to be placed on me, and I had been given the option by God of whether or not to be born, I’m pretty sure I would have opted out. After all, who would put their soul at such risk?
I let go of that belief. (See Lucky Star) What I discovered was that I was not forced into this life. My soul made a conscious choice to come here. I came here to learn many things, through many different experiences and many different teachers. I brought with me my own life‘s blueprint, which included my race, my sexual preference, my likes and dislikes, my challenge with relationships, and my family. These traits set the stage for what would be my life. After many years of self-evaluation, and at various points along the way, self-loathing, I finally reached the point where I had had enough. I decided to stop judging myself. I decided that I am what I am and instead of judging my life and everything I came here to experience and learn, I learned to embrace it and celebrate it. I continued to experience challenges, but I stopped being a victim and a part of everyone else’s choices, decisions, and beliefs and became a warrior in my own right. And through it all, I learned about unconditional love. I discovered that when I practiced this concept and aimed it toward myself and others around me, my life took on a whole new meaning.
And with that, my Journey Through The Bible Belt was complete.

Sky fits heaven so fly it
That’s what the prophet said to me
Child fits mother so hold your baby tight
That’s what my future could see
Fate fits karma so use it
That’s what the wise man said to me
Love fits virtue so hold on to the light
That’s what our future will be
[Chorus:]
Traveling down this road
Watching the signs as I go
I think I’ll follow the sun
Isn’t everyone just
Traveling down their own road
Watching the signs as they go
I think I’ll follow my heart
It’s a very good place to start
Traveling down my own road
Watching the signs as I go
Traveling down my own road
And I’m watching the signs as they go
Traveling, traveling
Watching the signs as I go
Hand fits giving so do it
That’s what the Gospel said to me
Life fits living so let your judgments go
That’s how our future should be
[chorus]
Traveling down my own road
Watching the signs as they go
Traveling down my own road
And I’m watching the signs as I go
Traveling, traveling
Watching the signs as I go
