Freedom is the will to receive and the Reforming Light helps transform our desire to receive for oneself to a desire to give to others. This process begins when the point in the heart is awakened in us by the upper force.
By thanking the Creator for all things in our lives, we are aligning ourselves with this force, and this allows us to grow and find the hidden purpose behind our challenges.
Not through words but through true prayer I’m beginning to feel and know from the heart that all of the hardships that I’m experiencing now are being used to give me a deep sense of surrendering to the “flow” of life, believing it is guided by the Creator (a higher power). I can no longer believe that my life is just a series of random, individual events. The more I self-evaluate, the more I can feel that the entire reality is the action of the Creator and there is non else besides Him.
Once the Creator awakened the point in my heart, I felt Him drawing me closer, and with each day that passes, the longing to know Him grows stronger. Through the Kabbalah Revealed teachings and listening to the teachings and discussions with like-minded people on YouTube, and the daily lessons on the Kabbalah App, I am understanding that there is none else besides Him. I am learning that I can trust Him with any situation in my life. Whether I see it as good or bad; I am assured that the Creator’s actions are for my/our good. I’ve come to the decision that the entire reality is the action of the Creator. Do I have days when I doubt this, yes. But I am thankful that I have the resources available to help me with this journey. I know that without the Creator I am lost.
My best experience from the previous course was the concept of freedom from fear in a religious context. I lived under the perception that I controlled whether or not my life would lead me to heaven or hell. I hope to gain fresh knowledge by my further studies in the wisdom of Kabbalah.
What most inspired me is how very little I knew about mankind and our purpose in this life. I’ve learned that I’m absolutely incapable of fixing anything, and that I’m totally dependent on the Creator for everything, which I find a deep comfort in knowing that I can trust and know that everything that happens in my life is good and has a purpose no matter the situation, good or evil. The Creator has a purpose that always ends with perfection. I wish for my fellow students to enjoy their lives and find complete fulfillment in knowing the love of the Creator through their studies in the wisdom of Kabbalah.
