Essence

Essence is the spiritual matter from which you were created. It exists within you at the cellular level of who you are. Every aspect of your being has been manufactured from this spiritual matter.

Essence is your direct connection to your Higher Power. Because Essence is the spiritual whole cloth that you were created from, Essence is the spiritual matter that you share in common with your Higher Power.

Essence manifests itself in your life through specific spiritual qualities. These qualities are faith, surrender, tolerance, humility, gratitude, love, forgiveness, and compassion.

Because Essence is embedded in every aspect of who you are, every aspect of who you are is directly descended from your Higher Power. As a result, your character defects, are a creation of your Higher Power. The relationship you have with your Higher Power should be mirrored in the relationship you have with your supporting cast members.
