Spiritual setbacks

Spiritual setbacks.

They’re gonna happen.

You’ll be consistently challenged your entire life by small, medium and large challenges. Spiritual challenges you see coming, and spiritual challenges you never see coming.

#truth

Doubts and fears — versus — hopes and dreams.

Profuse, perverse, and pervasive societal norms that promote a low-standard of spiritual vibrancy expectations.

Few if any personal, lifetime role models.

A constant conflict with reality.

Wisdom comes from experience. Experience comes from making mistakes.

You can intentionally take small, calculated risks with your spirit. If your risk ‘fails’, it’s still a success because you learned something and any ‘damage’ was small , unnoticeable, and easily corrected.

Spiritual setbacks can diminish as you age if you embrace and cultivate deep peace and contentment. They can also multiply if you embrace an anxious, uncertain, fearful mindset.

The odds in either direction, however, seem to be influenced by architecting your personal vibrancy, with great intention.

Recovery from risks successful failures, by design, so to speak.

Remember, waiting and doing nothing are the twin siblings of self destruction.

If anything can go wrong, it will.

Or, using your peaceful and contented mindset, “If anything can go right, it will.”

Church is every step.

Peace is every step.
