LIFE AND THE LAW - VISION QUEST

VISION QUEST

This does not always mean we have to oppose the expectations of others. We can still do the things that represent social graces, duties and chores. But we do not have to LIVE for these things. Work to live, but do not live to work. Eat to live, but do not live to eat. Keep always before you, as your driving force, something that is derived from the God-force that wells up within you.

Our church once sponsored a seminar called 'VISION QUEST',which was held at the retreat of the Abbey at Muenster, in the heart of Saskatchewan farm belt.. Participant were led through some guided meditations, some structured prayers, to help them reach their inner source, the purpose being to get answers concerning their purpose in this world.

I am sure that everyone got their own answers, each uniquely, and each to the extent that they could reach and touch that still small voice within. This is the voice that the Course in Miracles calls the voice FOR God. It is the voice of that part of you as an individual, that touches and is merged with God as a Universal Principle. Where the individual touches the universal, problems are unknown, and only answers are found.
