This week's exercise was easier than the other ones because even though I have not seen Jesus face to face I have the image that as a child I used to see at church. I focused on His face, His eyes, and I felt so much peace. I think this was due because at this moment one of my love ones is going through a very hard time and doing this exercise help me to lift prayers at a higher level. Many people don't believe in God or Jesus, but I do, I refuse to believe that I'm a decendent of a monkey. I decent from something big, bigger than any of us can ever imagine. I respect others believes and honor their honesty and sincerity. I think this was the best exercise because is like letting the soul meet its creator.
The phrase "one cannot lead another where one has not gone him or herself" this to me that I can't lead by example when I have not experienced or lived what I'm preaching or trying to teach. For example, I can't go and try to be a marriage counselor when my relationship is about to end due to misunderstanding and constant fighting. I think we have the experience and have overcome those bad or good experiences in order to tell others about them in a form of advice.
Hi Rosa
ReplyDeleteFirst i would like to say that I am sorry that your loved one is going thru some rough times. Well I never believed I was a decedent of a monkey. But people do have their own believes and opinions.
I agree that in order to lead own a issue you need to have some type of some type of knowledge if you dont have experience. That is my opinion on that issue. I enjoyed reading your post.
