Objective for this week:

The Quest is a year-long discovery of the inner self, our Christ nature based on The Quest, A Journey of Spiritual Rediscovery by Richard and Mary-Alice Jafolla. “Discovering” our inner Christ nature can be difficult, sometimes taking a whole lifetime.

This week we chose to initiate a cause for something that we wish to reap. However, we do so from an understanding that when and where we reap our good may differ from our expectations.

Metaphysical Lesson:

• Every thought, feeling, word, and action – without exception – is a cause which sets into motion an eventual effect.
• Although we always reap what we so, we do not necessarily reap where we sow.
• It follows that if we wish to have an improved life, we must be willing to sow that which we wish to reap.
• And we must be aware that it is only when and where we reap may not correspond to our expectations.

Process for causing my good:

• This week, identify some particular good that you wish to manifest in your life. It may be something like meeting a new friend, having a new work opportunity, or discovering a new talent or hobby.
• Consider five things that might cause this good to come into your life. Remember that the cause may appear to be insufficient to bring about your good. That doesn't matter; what matters is that it could potentially lead to the good you desire.
• Commit to putting one of the things into effect each day this week.
• Affirm throughout the week “I send only thoughts of good, and good returns in overwhelming measure.”
