George Mary Claret's book  God's Journey to Bethlehem   https://geni.us/nnB5 The call to turn to the Roots The call to return Home to God Evaluating and prioritizing life Leaving the unnecessary and having only the essentials learning from the trees season of Autumn Time to deepen the roots to find the Source of life Prerequisites as learnt from the Israelites traveling in the wilderness for 40 years - Clear about the destination · We move where we are looking at - Happily marching forward · Not sad about leaving where one IS or WAS (From all that was not God) - Not thinking about the Past “The whole congregation of the Israelites complained against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness. The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots and ate our fill of bread; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.” (Exodus 16:2-3). “As Pharaoh drew near, the Israelites looked back, and there were the Egyptians advancing on them. In great fear the Israelites cried out to the Lord. 11 They said to Moses, “Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us, bringing us out of Egypt? 12 Is this not the very thing we told you in Egypt, ‘Let us alone and let us serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.” (Exodus 14:10-12) - Happily marching forward · Happy about the future (To be with God and to be His own portion) - Following the great saints as companions or co-travelers · The journey can be overwhelming - Not sad - Happy as it is the preparation for the Holy Week – the Pascal Triduum - A U-turn - A realization of one’s wrong - Example – prodigal son Connect him on  www.greatergloryofgod.in Facebook https://www.facebook.com/georgemaryclaret/ https://www.facebook.com/ForGreaterGloryofGod Twitter https://twitter.com/GeorgeMaryClare YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/GreaterGloryofGod https://www.instagram.com/georgemaryclaret/ telegram https://t.me/godsjourneytobethlehem Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/6N1RFLqW5QoveOhLE7lseU LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/george-claret-83277061/ Medium https://cgmclaret.medium.com/ Pinterest https://in.pinterest.com/cgmclaret/ Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/frgeorgemaryclaret Podcasts https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zOTljZGUyOC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==
