Spiritual Growth To Help You Move Forward In Life

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.

Everyone needs someone to believe in. You may be putting your spouse first. You may rely on your parents or think the world of your children. However, these are people, and relationships don't last forever. Unfortunately, there is divorce, death and destruction that crosses paths. Where spirituality is concerned, you can be certain that you are not going to be abandoned.

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.

It obviously takes a lot of work as you start to grow. Sometimes you may feel discouraged because you feel as though you are not getting anywhere. However, there are a lot of resources available. These are available online as well as offline. They come in the form of books as well as blogs and online magazines which can be very motivating.

When things become stressful, it is important to focus on this. It can build a lot of inner strength. You will learn to combat fear. You will feel as if you are less isolated in the world. When you don't have this sense of spirituality in your life, you tend to feel as if you are alone in the world. It can be crippling for someone who is going though bad depression or anxiety.

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.

Take time going for a walk by yourself. Your mind will start to drift away and think about various things. It is a good idea to go for a walk in nature after work. This will clear your head and it can be so relaxing. It can be so inspiring. This is a form of meditation as well. You don't necessarily have to be sitting down with your eyes closed.
