In your brief time here, what qualities do you wish to cultivate and express? In his bestselling book, THE WISE HEART, author, psychologist, and practicing Buddhist-Jack Kornfield asks this question: “If [you] were to set the compass of [your] heart toward a north star for this life, what would it be?” Now, settle into this question and allow your heart to answer. This is your highest intention. Now ask yourself, if you are listening to this internal guidance. Is the answer reflected in the way you are living your life? Are you fulfilling your heart’s desire? It need not be a monumental quest. It might simply be a wish to be kind to yourself and others. The important thing is, are you aligning your thoughts and actions with this intention?
 
If we are honest, most of us have never considered the question in a truly serious manner. We may reflect on it in a passing manner when life’s circumstances seem difficult. However, we are likely to set it aside when the clouds depart. The objective here is to align more often with this internal guidance system, so we may live more authentically. This Sunday, Reverend Michael Moran presents a lesson about living life intentionally with clarity and purpose instead of “accidentally”.
