1st) Attachment. Through sacred and spiritual practices, like prayer, scripture reading and contemplative meditation (to name a few) we can increase our connection to the Light. This Light is the same Light that we see in the Creation Story. Your connection to God is critical to the development of your spiritual walk on the Path.
2nd) Revelation. The connection you maintain will bring fresh communication between you and God. These "revelations" will be spiritual insights into your life. They will give you the knowledge and direction you need to fulfill your destiny and find your path. But revelation alone will not fulfill your desire and thirst for right-living.
3rd) Enlightenment. Once God has spoken to your heart and revealed an opportunity for the Light tom increase in your life, it takes the spiritual tool of enlightenment to properly handle the revelation. Many people receive from God, but let it pass by them because they have not been trained to recognize it. This is where Enlightenment can help. The best way to utilize the gift of Enlightenment is to receive training from a spiritual leader, your Pastor, Rabbi or Youth Director.
Our goal in life is fulfillment. We gain fulfillment through our interaction with our desires. God has given us the desires to please Him and give Him glory, which will bring us the highest level of fulfillment.
We can experience the true design of our life through submission to His direction.
