Seek and you will find.


There is a rationale for choice. Only one Teacher knows what your reality is. If learning to remove the obstacles to that knowledge is the purpose of the curriculum, you must learn it of Him. The ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing what you are. It is expert only in confusion. It does not understand anything else. As a teacher, then, the ego is totally confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the Holy Spirit entirely, which is impossible, you could still learn nothing from the ego, because the ego knows nothing. T-8.II.1:1-9

A Course in Miracles (p. 281). Foundation for Inner Peace. Kindle Edition. 


Jesus in A Course In Miracles is blunt. He calls a spade a spade. He takes the bull by the horns. The ego teaches nonsense. The Holy Spirit teaches good sense. Which teacher do you choose to learn from?


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the free and responsible search for truth and meaning. This search takes us from the ways of the ego to the wisdom of the Holy Spirit.


Today it is suggested that we consider the words of Jesus as reported in Matthew 7:7 when Jesus tells us to seek and we will find, ask and it will be given to us, knock and the door will be opened.
