A.R.E. Meeting for 12/30/13

Leader:   Greg (for Nancy)
Reader:   Greg

We started on the “Destiny of the Soul” chapter and read three sections in the SFG book. We are up to the section titled “The Activities of the Soul in the Material.” In the Experiments book we also read three sections and we are up to the quote at the top of page 87. For an experiment, we had a couple wanting to do this experiment:

 Select an experience which might be called a dishonor for you. It is likely to be something you find yourself being ashamed of, embarrassed about or criticizing yourself for. Turn around your response to this. What was the lesson you learned from what happened? Try to put that lesson into action in your life rather than continually dwelling on those past events.

We also had a couple of people want to do this experiment:

Make a list of what you have faith and confidence in to do well. Select one item and identify what “soul power” might be associated with it. Use that power more often or more effectively to help others.

For example: “I am good at home repairs.” The soul power – the God-given talent – might be a mind which is insightful about how physical things operate or good eye-and-hand coordination. Now how could you be doing an even better job of using what has been given to you?
