I have a mission in my life to fulfill. CT Step 79 (MP3)

| I have a mission in my life to fulfill. CT Step 79 |
This is most certainly true, but it exists so far
outside the boundaries of people’s concerns and preoccupations that most people
simply cannot gain access to it in any way at all. They are so given to
survival and gratification that they cannot see anything else. They are
intoxicated with themselves and with those things that they use for their own
self-avoidance. They can only be led by powers that are beyond themselves. They
are helpless to resist.
Yet for you the idea of having a mission is
something that is beginning to become real or you would not have progressed
this far in the curriculum. Though you are still a beginning student of
Knowledge, you are starting to have a foundation, and that is real. That is
worth so much.
Remind yourself today that you have a mission in
life to fulfill, but leave that mission undefined. In your practice in
stillness and in your hourly practice, exercise your authority by entering
those practices with real determination. This is an expression of your mission.
If you cannot prepare for it, you cannot receive it. Therefore, your mission
now is to prepare so that you can receive.
Practice 79: One
30-minute stillness practice.
Contemplation practice.
Hourly practice.
Picture: Puget Sound viewed from the Seattle Space
Needle. Ships carrying those with unrecognized missions; mysterious cargo
within themselves.

Note: If you’ve some interest, but this is the
first time you’ve seen Steps, you should go to the beginning blog post. From here you will learn about Steps to Knowledge
and can begin it on the day that makes sense; then progress as needed. Begin at
the beginning.
If you do know about Steps, but have not done Steps
twice completely, read the related materials, and have a sense of the direction
of this study, you won’t get the experience. The Introduction begins:
“This is the Steps
to Knowledge Continuation Training. It is designed to build upon the Steps that
were learned in Steps to Knowledge to
enable you to experience the grace, the power and the direction of Knowledge in
your life and to become an expression of Knowledge in everything that you do.
If you have completed the book, Steps to
Knowledge, twice through and have followed the instructions as they were
given without altering the curriculum in any way, then you are now ready to
begin this more advanced study”.
If you are an independent student, that is
certainly an option. Posts here provide a trail that may let you have a virtual
companion when and if you want one. One may have to study alone, as I did in
the beginning. There are other Steps students blogging their experience and you
might find a person more like you as a companion, or use a number of such Steps
journeys. There are options as well through the Free School of the New Message
