Seeking Christ II e-bog

Seeking Christ II is a "e;how to"e; book hopefully helping us to understand some of the practices that we can employ to move closer to our Holy Father. Mostly based on the experiences of the author, it starts with trying to understand why we should even want to get to know Christ, then it discusses what the Bible calls "e;flesh"e; and the "e;old man,"e; referred to in these pages as the ego. Most of the book describes methods or practices which suggest how we may move into relationship with Christ as we align ourselves with our Holy Father. Discussed are a powerful prayer of surrender, what it means to be "e;born again,"e; how one may "e;see"e; with the "e;eye of the heart,"e; and how we may function as optimal conduits for the gifts of the Spirit. Brief descriptions of surrender, mindfulness, and divine reading and the idea of hearing from God are included. Finally, some ideas are presented that have stymied and continue to challenge the author, ending with a summary of the author's understanding one perspective of who we truly are (the new man) and how we may optimize our efforts to be receptive to the wishes of our Holy Father as we function as a conduit for the gifts of the Spirit.The author was encouraged to write this book by an encounter with the Holy Spirit over a week-long period of time and has included some testimonies and other interactions scattered throughout the text. The author has tried to offer a Biblical scriptural basis for his conclusions obtained mostly through study and prayer but also through interaction with the Holy Spirit. This book is offered in prayer with the hope that something in these pages may help the reader develop a stronger, intimate, and more loving relationship with our Holy Father.
