Holding a Vision from Soul

Holding a Vision from Soul
by Robert G Parent

I'd like to ponder on something a friend was talking to me about. It was about the anointing or calling that Christians call their mission in life. My friend didn't like that I called it a decision. It just seemed wrong to her that someone would decide their calling, after all a calling is something God tells a person. However, all things come down to a decision, even the big decisions.

From my point of view or understanding, this anointing or big decision seems so powerful because it comes from the soul. At that time, the personality had a moment of clarity where they understood where their lives needed to go. God doesn't tell us where to go because then freewill would be an illusion, which I don't believe. We each create our own future by the decisions we make on a daily bases. Decision is like pins in a map that show us where we've been. And no matter where we are now, we have made decisions that brought us to the point where we are now.

People use God to blame ( for the lack of a better word ) for living a life of mediocrity ( living a boring life ) or a life filled with sadness, anger, and frustration. But if a life sees their life in these ways, it reflects the darkness that overshadows their soul's light. Things also happen to us because of other people's decisions. We're all trying to get by in our own current consciousness.

To get the most or even more out of our current consciousness, we each need to look at the light within each of us. We need to see the bigger picture that is our life. We need to see the possibilities that lay within the big picture of our life. We need to illuminate the darkness, the shadow that is cast over our lives. We each need to look to the soul in all our decisions. When we do look to soul in our decisions, we will make better decisions.

We each hold onto our ideas of how things should be done but, the world keeps changing and we need to change in how we do things, while still holding a vision from soul on how things should be.
