Karen stretched out his hand and pressed it down gently, signaling the old man to be quiet.

The old man stopped talking and looked at Karen silently.

He certainly knew the importance of these three foundational stages of the Orthodox Church;

Divine servant is a kind of purification of oneself, divine enlightenment is to listen to God's teachings, and divine shepherding is to invite the image of God into one's heart, and let God guide one's way forward and illuminate the road ahead.

This is the most basic stage, but at the same time it is an extremely important stage. It can even be said that the future and upper limit of a priest can be roughly seen at this time.

God is like your parent, helping you learn to walk and teaching you how to understand the world again.

The changes in each stage are actually a kind of examination of your past, because your past is clearly visible. Only by re-examining your past can you better understand the future.

However, what shocked the old man was that the young man in front of him had just blasphemed God in front of him. Why did he start "divine shepherding" again in the blink of an eye?

You are doubting God and abandoning God,

How can God remain in your heart?

Or,

You have obviously doubted and abandoned God, so how can you invite God in again?

Actually, the answer is simple;

If Karen's purification stage of becoming a servant of God, although "a bit louder", is at least within the framework of the program;

So, starting from the next divine revelation, Karen has actually embarked on a path that belongs to him and suits him.

Divine Enlightenment only determines a goal and a direction, so the Divine Priest at this time is the filling of one's own courage and hope.

There was a majestic figure standing in front of him. This feeling was indeed reassuring, but on the road Karen was going to take, he was the one standing at the front;

He has no back to see, and the people behind him can only see his back.

At this moment, in Karen's consciousness, this old man appeared. The old man's body had an ethereal quality. He was not alive, nor a clone, nor a puppet. His body was surrounded by a white luster, or

Say, it is actually composed of this mass of luster.

Pu'er, Kevin and Alfred have all carefully inspected the house and found nothing unusual;

Because this old man is really just a leftover thought. The former owner of the house read and thought here. This bookstore left traces of his thoughts;

Therefore, if you don't consider that this "old man" will lead you astray, he is actually harmless because he has no ability to do anything.

The figure of Pu'er appeared in Karen's consciousness.

This black cat stood there. It was obviously black hair, but deep in the blackness, there seemed to be a dark red color hidden, like a flame that had been suppressed to the extreme.

Pu'er is the successor of the fire attribute of the Allen family's belief system. This color is not surprising.

Then, the golden hair appeared in Karen's consciousness;

The golden retriever was also standing there. Its body exuded a soft milky white luster and a black shadow. The two were not mutually exclusive and antagonistic. Instead, they were constantly blending together. Sometimes they were completely integrated, and sometimes they gradually separated. They separated for a long time.

, and merged in again. Neither side seemed to want to fight, but instead found the most suitable posture for each other.

immediately,

Alfred's figure appeared in Karen's consciousness. Alfred's eyes were shining with red luster, but on his body, there was a faint purple thread flowing, extending all the way to him.

The instep extended out of the instep, all the way towards Karen's "line of sight", and connected to Karen's body.

Karen clearly sensed the belief and admiration for herself from Alfred.

As an admirer, Karen also felt very strange about this phenomenon, because even he himself could not imagine how Alfred did it!

At the moment, Karen feels like she is a dot, spreading out of her field of vision step by step, re-examining the individuals she has come into contact with.

In fact, these are them in his memory. These lusters and colors did not exist before. In fact, they have always existed, at least at the moment when Karen saw them for the last time. They did exist, but

I just couldn't see it at the time.

Just like a saying;

When you are very young, when you are literate, you can pronounce it and understand it, at least you think you understand it.

But when you grow older and read this sentence again, you will have a different feeling;

When you become an adult, when you are middle-aged, when you are in your twilight years, when you have experienced some things, when you have gone through the wind and rain, every time you read this sentence, you will have different insights and feedback.

This motto has obviously not changed a word over the years, but you have changed.

Life is often compared to a road, so people will subconsciously substitute the road of life into a certain street they have walked in reality, with all kinds of people and trees with mottled light and shadow on both sides.

In reality, when you stop, the road stops, but in life, when you stop, you will be shocked to find that the road under your feet is not the same as yours.

The will and your actions move on their own.

Karen, who was sitting on the chair, raised her hand and gently rubbed the center of her eyebrows. Her expression was not painful, but rather devoted.

The feeling of thinking and discovery brought about by this kind of self-examination is actually very comfortable, even a little fascinating.

He saw Eunice, Borg, Judah, and a person from Allen Manor;

He saw the white light on Miss Bertha's body, which was very similar to the old man in front of him;

He saw Little John, and there was a red shadow lingering in his heart, which was the source of his pollution;

He saw Mr. Pavarro, a bald, slovenly middle-aged man with an extremely pure black color flowing on his body.

He saw Mr. Hoffen, he saw Ms. Molly,

But only,

Karen did not visit her grandfather.

It’s not that I can’t, but I don’t want to;

Deep down, Karen wanted to keep the best memories of her grandfather, and then wait until that day comes when she returns home, looks at him with her own eyes, and then wakes him up.

Because Dis is not a point in his memory, but a part of his past memory.

…

From the old man's perspective, black mist has been emanating from Karen's body at this time. During the rolling, it turned into a black liquid-like existence and submerged into Karen's body again. This is a cycle.

But the problem is that this cycle lasts too long.

Just like Mr. Bede's feeling when Karen's divine enlightenment last time, the old man is now also beginning to be surprised by Karen's "thickness". What kind of terrible accumulation is this that can continue to this day without any intention of stopping?

Pu'er once gave Karen a very analogy of "catching the breath of the earth". When everyone is scoring 100 points, for Karen, it is just because the roll is only 100 points;

It far exceeds the accumulation of ordinary people and will definitely produce extraordinary presentations at special moments.

Karen herself is somewhat used to this feeling.

He continued to select individuals from his past memories to examine, and continued to explore those special points that he had seen before but could not discover.

This opportunity is rare. For ordinary priests, the opportunity to truly receive teachings from God is probably only during the time of divine enlightenment. It is during this period of time that the self-examination of the divine priests can be brought into full play.

effect.

finally,

Karen has finished reviewing his memories, but he still has some unfinished ideas, and the fundamental reason why he is still unfinished is that he still has some energy left.

…

Is it coming to an end? Is it finally going to be over?

The old man sighed in his heart;

What kind of person did you sell your house to?

It is a pity that his existence is limited to this study room, and even limited to his "contact" with Karen. From other people's perspective, he actually does not exist at all, or even from his own perspective in reality.

Same here.

"I can only hope that after selling the house, I will come back and visit again." The old man thought in his heart.

Um?

What's this?

The old man saw a figure appearing behind Karen. This figure was just an image. She would not emit any substantial aura, but anyone who saw her could detect it.

This is a woman;

The old man finally understood: "He is observing...examining his guide?"

Now, Karen is like watching a sequel after watching a work but still not finished it.

Look for the existence of some special connections, and then re-examine and understand them.

The guide is such a relationship. In reality, the priest who baptizes ordinary babies is also included in this category. In the church circle, it refers to the person who leads you into this circle, and specifically refers to the person who leads you.

The one who completes the purification.

There is no doubt that Karen's guide is Pu'er, or...Pall Allen.

The image behind her gradually became clear. This woman wore a black wide-brimmed hat, a red dress, magic boots inlaid with gems, and held a purple wand in her hand.
