Reader: Nancy and Greg
In the Search For God I book, we started the chapter on "What is My Ideal?" and read up to the section "Attaining the Ideal."
The experiment for the week is:
Take time each day in prayer and meditation to ask youself this question: "What qualities make up the highest awareness that I would like to have directing my life?" Each day record the answers that come to your mind.
At the end of the week have a special quiet time in which you consider all of the qualities you have listed. Allow a state of awareness to emerge in your consciousness that would combine and integrate all these qualities. When you feel that you are in touch with this state of awareness, choose a word or short phrase to represent this state of consciousness, which is your spiritual ideal (e.g., "God," "oneness with Christ," "love").
