How to Desire God above All Else! – David Hoffmeister reminds us that some online retreats are canceled because of war. It’s a reminder that the world of egoic action and reaction is not our home, and we need to go inward and make contact with God, because, as Jesus says in the Course, the world has never satisfied us. David also offers a reminder that the economic challenges of the world can be reinterpreted as simply an opportunity to turn our attention inward and pray to strengthen our trust. As always, the focus is only on the goal of peace of mind and not on outcomes. This is how to desire God above all appearances in form!
