Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him and he would have given thee living water.
— St. John 4:10
King James Version of the Bible
“Providential Guideposts”
A Journey That
Will Set You Free … p. 62
Fear not to go within in search of the real you. It will come at a low point in your life when you are at a loss, not knowing where to turn. It is precisely this combination of events that will enable, nay, even compel you to make this journey. And it is one that will set you free.
Discovery of one’s own self is not an intellectual exercise, something to be reasoned in the mind. By its very nature, it is a spiritual revelation; one that reveals our primary purpose in life, that of coming to know God.
Though the journey may be life-long, we soon come to know a quieting of the mind coupled with a sense of inner peace. Even more, we learn to love our self and we become enlightened with the knowledge that we can do no better than to love both God and our neighbour. Ever mindful of God’s presence, we manifest His Goodness and enrich the lives of others.
