Chapter Two, Reading # 15

"It's like a terrible hunter seeking out my presence. It hasn't found me yet, but it's searching for me."
"Are you certain?" A look of doubt crossed his features. "Do you truly believe what you see in this crystal?"
Flindra took note of the look. "I do believe it, Leudh. I've asked the Spirit to be with me and to guide me and I really believe this is the truth." She swallowed hard. "My awareness of the monstrous evil was even more acute in the crystal's vision than in my dreams." Flindra shuddered and closed her eyes.
Leudh slipped his arm around her shoulders to give her support. "Is there more?"
"The crystal kept showing visions of a terrible darkness descending over the world as if it was showing me what will happen if we lose our fight with this evil. What if I don't do the right thing? What if I'm not equal to my fate? What if I fail in this fight and condemn the world to disaster?" She looked at him and tears touched her eyes. "What if I don't do the right thing?" she reiterated.
"Flin, I think you'll make the right move when the time comes if indeed you must face this trial at all. Ask yourself something, though, did you ever know Papa or Momma to make a wrong decision when they arrived at some important question in their lives? Did you ever see them too afraid to do what they had to do?"
"No, they both had an uncanny way of knowing the right thing to do. Momma always said that what is correct and true is never in conflict with Spirit, that what is right is always in balance with the deeper harmony of life. She always said the Spirit would guide us if we seek His wisdom and that He would always give us the courage to carry out His Will."
"I think she’s right. She always taught me to pray and to ask for guidance when I was facing some decision in my life."
"And to be still and wait for an answer." Flindra added with a small smile. She was familiar with this piece of frequent motherly advice.
