From the archers of old we have the phrase being “on the mark” or hitting the bulls-eye.
When we are on the mark, we are effective and on purpose.
When we are on the mark, life works because we are doing the work.
When we are on the mark, we feel capable, valuable and successful.
When we are off the mark, we have “sinned”.
In ancient Greek, to “sin” meant missing our target.
So to err is to sin and miss the mark.
So the sinner must first have a mark at which to aim.
What is your Mark?
What is your North Star?
Where are you focused?
What guides and directs your life?
To be successful and effective is to be on purpose, living your mission and true to oneself.
To be on the mark is to live in integrity with one’s values and life purpose.
To feel in alignment with the flow of life, we must clear away the obstacles to our Highest Truth.
To experience “safe, fun and easy” is to be right with oneself and the Goodness (God) within.
