Spiritual Pathways 101 page 6

Spiritual Pathways 101 page 6 by ric gustafson


Mr Freeman watched as a group of students walked in and were excited about something. He saw the time on the clock. " It's 6:00, let's start". He took a magic marker and wrote something on the board. He pointed to Melissa Harper. " Melissa, what were you and the others so excited about when you came to class".
The young woman smiled at the teacher. " Mr Freeman, several of us earlier went to a peace rally here at school".
Mr Freeman grinned and pointed at the board. " Great because that is an example of the pathway we will be discussing tonight". " The Activist Pathway".
A hand shot up. " What is that Mr Freeman?".
" You have a passion, zeal and energy for something you feel strongly about".
" Like the peace rally we were at".
" Yes, and like Nehemiah you need a cause and then you act on it".
" How will that help our spiritual life?".
" You will be excited about something and your spiritual life will not stagnate".
