Hello Friend,
​
Our life experiences, family norms and cultural values weave a tapestry we call our personal belief system (BS). This system of accepted parameters or programming can work for good or ill. Generally, we only notice it when it works against us. What is it about these accepted beliefs that get in the way? The answer is that many of the things we accept as truth are malformed concepts that we hold about our self, others and the world. These flawed notions prevent us from seeing things as they truly are. And when we choose to believe them, they reinforce our misguided views and define how we experience the world. 

The key to preventing this self-sabotage is to ask ourselves if we are projecting our BS on a situation or seeing it clearly. The Course in Miracles defines this as seeing through the eyes of love or fear. This conscious choosing requires challenging every thought moment by moment. Gary Zhukov said; “Choice is the engine of our evolution…if you choose unconsciously, you will evolve unconsciously. If you choose consciously, you will evolve consciously.” Every moment of your life is defined by the choices you make. This Sunday Reverend Michael Moran shares practical ways to make conscious, spiritually directed choices which will significantly improve how you experience life.
