A New Spiritual & Intuitive You – Day 5
A New Spiritual and Intuitive You! Day 5

Spiritual Transformation
I wanted to share with you a wonderful conversation I had with students at a seminary college where I was invited to speak about “New Age” beliefs. I began our talk with “Why do you believe in God?” I expected similar answers to a question I would ask my fellow students at Columbia who were studying medicine, “Why do you want to be a doctor?” Back then, the medical students would commonly say something like, “Oh, my father, grandfather and uncle were doctors, so I’m going to be one,” or “My parents want me to be a doctor.”
These students at the seminary college are there to be ministers, missionaries and priests. What was it that made them believe in God? Was it family upbringing? But, it wasn’t, their answers were pretty much the same, they all had a direct personal profound experience with God. Some incident happened in their lives where they experienced God and it changed their lives. They were spiritually transformed.
For those students, each one of them could recall the time and place where they had their epiphany with God and received their divine message from Him, usually words of comfort and assurance, but not necessarily a command to serve. But their experience was so profound they felt a desire to serve. To them God was as real as you and me.
Many people have desire to know God truly exists. That knowledge would solidify their trust and faith in something greater than us. In some ways, these experiences the seminary students had is enviable. Knowing there was something greater than us, that can help us live life the best way. Because, what better way to live than the way your creator wanted you to. If you could figure out what life was about and why we were here, life would be perfect if we knew how to live it.
