Finding
the inner peace is a personal assignment which creates an urgent stir at one
point in life. It is seeking the underlying purpose for which you exist and deep
desire to live. Those who try to escape from complying, often face endless spiritual
torment.
There
is a confusion of locating this internal stir.
Is it the peace of mind I am seeking or responding to the inner voice in
the region of my body? This alone indicates how oblivious of self we are! Nonetheless,
this moment moves you to find knowledge of what to do. Some would go to traditional spiritual
doctors and end up living in a cave with instructions to seek wisdom from dead
ancestors. Some end up in convents to
learn how to hear and respond to this profound need to converse and commune
with Higher Spiritual Authority. I call this a special personal assignment.
This
special assignment is indeed unique and therefore I will not attempt to come up
with a formula of how to go about it. Nonetheless,
there is a necessary principle that may help you not to seek wisdom from the
dead. The Creator warned us that there
is no activity beyond the grave. This
then means seeking wisdom from Him is the only right route to follow. The starting point is acknowledging your
spirituality. You are a spirit being and
can only communicate with the Creator who is the Spirit from the spiritual realm. Secondly, you need to remove yourself from
the noisy environment that destructs you from listening to the prompting and
conversation coming from the inner region of your body. It is activated by
reading the Scriptures. Clearly it does not come from your head;
therefore it is important to note because we have been socialized to respond to
the voices in our heads.
The
voice gently stirs your heart in a loving way and shed a light of a desirable
route. This reveals where you have been
and clearly directs you to the new route which you will immediately acknowledge
as being what you want. The process may
come slowly like shedding off the rotten cabbage leaves until you find fresh
part that can be used. The revelation is
likely to be accompanied by tearful remorse as you look into the place you have
been. This is a repentance of the heart which is the beginning of your transformation.
The
challenge comes with the reality of living in a flesh among people who have not
yet experience transformation. Now the
ball is in your court: You must decide where you want to be and do all that is
necessary to stay there. Usually this
means trying to tell your family and friends about what you have decided to
do. Some will respect your transformed
attitude, which is normally evident. Others will mock you and give your
spiritual move a scientific name like a mid-life crisis. This pull and push experience will usher you
to go up the stream; because you are a life fish. This implies being strong in who
you have become; hence choosing the spiritual way of life which is the domain
of your the inner peace.
You
may have experienced your special assignment in a completely different
fashion. If you have no idea of what I
am talking about; it could mean yours is not yet due! All of us must have this
revelation of our call. Seek it and you will find it because it is the answer
to finding the inner peace!
