Spirit Quest

Spirit quest Essay:

This was quite an enjoyable coarse. Though I have had experience working with energy, this course introduced some new and interesting ways to do it. 

I often noticed that whatever subject the coarse was offering in a particular week, just happened to be the very thing I needed to work on at the time. In particular, the week we were working on “stuck energy”, and moving it. That was the very week I needed to clean out my garage, so I could finally get my car in there. If there is one thing I hate to do it’s part with things. The coarse said that we can’t keep every item our children ever made us, and wouldn’t you know, I’ve kept scrap books and scrap books of exactly that. I knew I had to let go of some of this. So, I did what I knew I had to do, and I was thankful I had the coarse that week to help me through it. It was exhausting, and I wasn’t surprised because I learned so much of our energy is attached to things we hold on to. When we start to let it move, it physically affects us. I moved stuff out a little at a time, so I knew it wasn’t exhaustion from the physical act of cleaning. Once I opened the first box and started setting aside what I was getting rid of, I felt my energy start to drain. But I understood what was happening to me from a different standpoint, other than just being tired. I also realized how important it is to keep energy moving. 

If there is one way to put a definition on the word “Metaphysics”, because I’ve seen a few different ways it is explained, I’d have to say that it is understanding energy and how to move it. Of coarse, we want to move it in a positive way. The law of Karma is there to keep things in balance. 

I’ve learned that the Universe works on everyone’s behalf, there are no favored ones. If we want something that directly involves another person, our request has to meet the good of all involved. If it does not, that doesn’t necessarily mean we won’t get our request. We just might not get it in the exactly the way we hoped. Mock-ups are a clear example of this. It’s about recognizing when a prayer or request has been answered, though it might not be in the exact way we expected. The question would be, “Have your needs been met?” If we look clearly at the situation, we will find that they have.

Metaphysics

Dr. of Metaphysics Dissertation

Rev. Jacob Hold

The Dr. of Metaphysics course was a very eye-opening

experience. It brought a lot of self recognition as

well as the surroundings of everyday life.

When one comes to realize the miracles of everyday

life, that is the day that their three minds become

aligned, their way of thinking is through their higher

guidance not their ego. They come to understand that

they have a soul and a higher purpose in life.

When you realize you have a soul, you come to realize

it's purpose is to learn while here on Earth. Not only

is it its need to learn but also to teach others that

go astray from their higher purpose.

The way to teach others is through everyday contact

with others. The actions that are done to others, the

words spoken, the thoughts, they all need to be

examined for us to learn from. The answer to all those

actions is through forgiveness. Only through

forgiveness can a soul truely heal. When a person asks

for forgiveness from their heart it is exchanged

between them and the person being asked.

Everything in life happens for a reason. We don't

know why the dark side of life happens. But we delight

in the beauty and bounty of nature, the gifts of our

talents, the pursuit of happiness and love from

others. When we learn to accept, we recognize that

both the dark and the light sides of life nourish us.

It bears witness that all things work together for

good for those who love God. With an attitude of

acceptance even our personal shortcomings become

blessings.

According to A Course in Miracles, prayer is the

medium of miracles. It releases us from fear-based

thinking of our egos and aligns our minds with the

love of God. Also in the course it is said "through

prayer love is recieved, and through miracless love is

expressed". That makes prayer the greatest gift with

which God blessed His son at his creation.

If you truly pray for something from your heart, you

are asking for intervention at the level of cause.

When we do this we may be afraid of receiving the very

result we are seeking. What we must truely pray for is

not always given an answer we seek, if we were then

God would be giving us more than we could handle and

God does not burden his children. That is why guidance

is always given in the form of everyday interactions.

Signs of an answer are given all around you, when you

lest expect them. We just need to be receptive and

look with open hearts to receive them.

Metaphysics

My name is Rev. Deborah Overfield. I am a Reverend, Spiritual Healer, Teacher Aide, and Natural Health Practitioner. I am taking Seminary courses working toward my degree in Ministry. I chose to take Dr. of Metaphysics in continuing from Master of Metaphysics. I heal using metaphysics. Everyday in every way something amazes me and I look forward everyday to get up and see what the day brings. What a difference a day makes.

Everything about the course is useful and worth the knowing. In this essay I will talk about a few parts that are of top interest to me. They are emotions, prayer and purpose.

Everyone can learn how to control negative emotions, especially anger so that it does not become stuck energy within the body. When this energy becomes stuck or blocked within the body dis-ease or illness results. Forgiveness is the most important part of this healing. Forgiveness and repentance is the most important part of freedom from these emotions. We can choose how we live, how we feel by our intentions. Everyday we get up we need to set our intentions for our day. This way we stay focused on what we choose our life to be. Emotions really means energy in motion. Every time we feel a negative emotion we need to work through it and then let it go. Do not harbor the negative emotions. Instead replace them with a positive. Replace all negative statements with positive statements. Your life will become what you believe and intend. Live on purpose.

Prayer is talking to God. If our lives are centered in Jesus and we our living for him, then our life will reflect a life of praying without ceasing, as the Bible instructs. Prayer is also includes our intent. Prayer is praise, thanks, confession, our spiritual conversation with God. We are to put our whole soul and attention in our prayer. Make it a personal prayer. Reading a written prayer by someone else can and may be ok if it is deeply heart felt, but we should be praying our original personal thoughts and feelings. Strengthen your prayer through our faith in the Lord. Always forgiving others and honest living.

What is your purpose in this life? Do you live on purpose? Living on purpose is setting your intentions for your life. Creating goals. Living in the now. Learning from the past and letting it go. Our founding Fathers had it right. Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This is purposeful living. Living a life we intend, hurting and harming no one, perusing our goals (life purpose) with a joyful heart. This is the key to happiness. When you walk you talk, and commit to living true to your purpose amazing things begin to happen. Synchronicity, miracles, accomplishing the goals we set out for, and more. We need to ask ourselves what can I contribute? How do I want to be remembered when I’m no longer here in this life? What do I want to accomplish? And last but not least how may I be of service to others? People who live on purpose have a sense of aliveness and positive energy and make a difference in the world around them.

Live a life of meaning and intention with God the center and being first in your life and miraculous things will continue to happen. As Jesus into your heart today and live for him. Without God life has no purpose, and without purpose life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.

What do you desire. Nothing is difficult that is wholly desired .If you are God centered then you are living for God. You have a Holy purpose, and with this power miracles happen.

I am seeing miracles happen ,synchronicity, and even a better knowing, that connection with God. The angles are always there to help guide , guard and protect me. They help me to accomplish my purpose here on earth. I can truly say now that life is fun. Fun is a way of life not an activity. Your life becomes what you believe.

Spirit Quest

Universal Life Church Metaphysics Course

Spirit-Quest, the course has been and will continue to be a valuable set of tools. I continue to cherish each one. They have a place in the library at our home. Like any teaching implement, they are referred to time and time again. I want to thank the many that have walked with me through this part of my life’s journey. Thank you Amy, thanks to those who helped put it together, the spirit guides that help me walk through my conscious and unconscious levels of understanding. Thanks to the Elemental Spirits for allowing themselves to be seen and worked with, thanks to the beings who have come to me through these studies and continue to walk with me on my path. Thanks to all.

I have searched to understand myself for as long as I can remember. Through this course, I have been able to identify energies and processes that eluded me. My relationships with others have changed for the betterment of my self-growth.

Specifics

Meditation as I understand it, has evolved so I may use it throughout my day and night. I visualize on a regular basis in most things that pass through my life. The exercises provided in the course have awakened senses or awareness that give strength to my Spiritual self. My perception of my energies and the energies around me are growing and becoming more vivid. I am learning to distinguish between my personal energy, the earth energies and the “cosmos” energies. My drive to heal the creatures that come to me for rehabilitation continues with my understanding of the “purpose” or “abilities” of each type of energy. Instead of using my personal energy to try and heal one that is injured, I visualize the energies of the Earth and the Universe to work with the creature.

This course introduced me to the concept of the Astral Plane and my own astral body. I am learning to visualize the cleansing of the silver cord and the placing of my golden light within this astral body. The concept is new to me. I am sure over time, this will become second nature and many more opportunities will present themselves that deal with the ‘spiritual” or astral plane and the beings that live there. If I remember correctly, there are eleven levels that were introduced. As with any introduction, it is but a doorway through which I am entering.

I am learning different ways of perceiving the worlds around me, to release my fear of the unknown (which is taught), and to embrace others without judgment.

An added bonus to taking this course is getting to know Amy Long. Through the sharing of her life experiences and approach to subjects, she has given the blessing of herself. With this, I would like to say thanks to all who played a part in my journey through Spirit-Quest.

Rev. Sherri Roberts
