Mystical Dreams of a Sojourner

A Journey of Faith

Beschreibung

Genuine mystical experiences can have an impact on our spiritual development and in drawing us closer to God, as well as to each other. Our desire for truth and good cannot be satisfied just through the knowledge of created things in the natural world. It is through mystical encounters that we are given special graces by God that lead us deeper into our relationship with God and to a greater fulfillment of our faith. In life, each of us is a sojourner along a path that God has placed before us. Our secular world makes it difficult for some to take this journey, but for those who do what can be revealed to them is a beautiful beatitude and joy. In this book, Kevin describes some mystical dreams he experienced that were part of his sojourn along his faith journey. His reflections on those dreams provide an unfiltered perception about the intimacy of mystical experiences and what they mean in life. Perhaps what Kevin shares can help lead others to their own closer encounters with God and what He has in store for them. In this book, Kevin provides some context about what was occurring in his life at the time he had each of the dreams. Then, he gives details about each dream, followed by a reflection about what each dream meant to him and how it might help others who read them.
