This is indicated by the following comments: I think I was able to open up for her - make myself vulnerable." Brian "My beliefs and values were respected. Even when I reacted once it was allowed. I didn't hold back. I felt cared for and listened to." Marge D. Spiritual Direction is not about controlTo be clear I am not hear to speak for God or act as God in your life. I do believe that a spiritual director is there to "direct" your life as some kind of authoritarian shepherd. No. My job is to point to Jesus, let the Holy Spirit counsel and engineer your own healing encounters with your heavenly Father. Spiritual Direction - the outcomesI am interested in the peace and creativity that flows from listening to God and practicing His presence. I am also aware that an encounter with God is healing because Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Brian wrote: "George's approach clarified a lot ... I have received a significant amount of emotional and spiritual freedom." "I always thank God for George and how he has helped me and my family."
