He takes you by the hand and sits you down by the still water. There you eat and drink together as your heart is filled with His joy and peace.

Then He starts to speak purpose into your life...

"My child, I am Emmanuel, God with you. I take great delight in you. Indeed my Father has created you in Me for a specific purpose that will be unveiled as you take steps of faith. You have a special mission. Your life is to touch many lives with the same joy and peace you now have received. You must find the great sea of humanity and stand in it on the rock - I am that rock. But before you do that you must find and follow the river of life."

After saying that He leaps up and runs away with great purpose, leaping like an agile deer. Your heart yearns for Him and you feel drawn into a wonderful adventure.

Looking around you you see to the south where you have just come from through the 'reality' door is a comfortable looking cottage with 'Mother's Chambers' written on it. To the north the way is blocked by a pond. To the west and east you hear running water.

As you are taking stock of where you are a man dressed like a Shepherd of old, with a staff, turban and tunic, approches you from behind a tree and says,'Welcome Sojourner! I have been assigned to watch over you while you are in the garden,to help you find the river of life which you are to follow. The first thing you must do is let me dip you in the water over there so you are fully immersed, then I will bring you out to start your quest.'

You ask him why he must do that and he simply replies,"Well, it's symbolic of what has happened to you. As you take this step of obedience it symbolizes your being buried (dying to your old life) as you go under the water, and raising again to newness of life as you come up out of the water. This is your baptism by water!"
