Your Journey To Spiritual Growth

By Andrew Murphy


When you decide to grow spiritually in your faith and your belief, you will find that there is a greater sense of freedom in your life. It is easy to go to a psychologist or a psychiatrist, but often one gets so much more from turning to the one who you really believe in. This is why spiritual growth is so important. You can also keep on growing right throughout your life.

Some people think that it is enough to stay at the same level, spiritually. They feel that it is more important to concentrate on relationships in the work place as well as other relationships which are more personal. Of course, one needs to focus on the relationship with your children as well as with your spouse. However, sadly, these won't be here forever.

Eventually, your personal relationships are going to be lost because this is the natural way of life. You will need somewhere to turn for guidance. It is essential that you seek guidance in someone that you really believe in. This kind of thing gives everyone comfort. It is not only a way of dealing with relationships, but it is a way of dealing with any sort of uncomfortable experience, emotion or feeling you may be having.

Of course, this is something that you have to work on. It does not come overnight. One lives in a stressful world with relationships that can create turmoil. The work place can cause more issues to arise. This is why meditation is so important. You start to discover more about who you really are by going deeper. It can be different for everyone, and you will soon realize how important it can be.

There are also many groups that can be empowering and motivating. There are big communities of people who are like minded and will give you tips how to get to the next level. They will tell you more about their own journey and how they have got to that point. Motivational speakers can also be very encouraging.

By meditating like this, you will find that you will eliminate a lot of the anxious thoughts that you are carrying around with you. Many psychologists will encourage this, but not in a spiritual way. This is just part of the spiritual journey that needs to be part of your life. To encourage and motivate yourself, it may be necessary to have a journal where you jot down notes.

It can be helpful to read more about others who have grown from one point to another. This can be encouraging and it will motivate you with your own goals. Read a little devotion every day as soon as you get up. This will create discipline in your life. Meditation may be difficult at first, but with practice it comes naturally. Some people just prefer to spend quiet time by themselves.

There is a lot of encouraging material around, which comes in the form of books, magazines and blogs. Subscribe to some of these blogs. Go to lectures and get devotionals. You can even join up with a partner or a group. This is a good way of staying motivated.
