Grand evening, Beloveds.
If you’ve just started your spiritual journey—started reading a book of indoctrination (Bible, Torah, IChing, Scrolls, Scripture, etc) and life is lifing you to exit the chat… heres a perspective check.
These are storms we all face. All of us who have been in your position, experienced disruptions, life in chaos, death, rebirths and recreations of existence after we walk blindly in faith taking God’s hand.
It’s turbulent.
We’ve all felt this before.
Life is beautiful, yes, but it is also a "very mean and nasty place," as a wise man once said.
It has a way of knocking us down, sometimes keeping us there if we let it.
We all encounter moments when our energy is depleted, when the path ahead looks impossible, and the word "quit" whispers in our ears with a comforting promise of an end to the pain.
Do not give up.
Why? Because the hardest times often lead to the greatest moments of our lives.
That pain you feel, that struggle, that is the high cost of growth, the forging fire that builds resilience and strength you never knew you possessed.
Every setback is not an end, but an opportunity to learn and grow, a stepping stone to success, not a permanent roadblock.
Every obstacle you have overcome has shaped the strong person standing here today.
You have survived every hard day so far, and you can survive this one too.
Perseverance means continuing to move forward despite the hurt, the uncertainty, or the lack of support.
It means having the guts to face failure, to try and fail better, and to keep going until you succeed.
It's about finding a reason to keep going, even if you have to create one out of thin air, because as long as you are alive, there is hope.
You might have to change your approach, the "how" you will get there, but never, ever give up on the great life you deserve.
Believe in yourself and your ability to succeed, no matter how impossible your situation may seem.
You are capable of greatness.
When you feel like giving up, when you feel you've lost, struggled, and suffered enough, remember this: the only way to truly lose is to quit.
It is always too soon to quit.
Keep pushing forward.
Keep fighting.
Stay the course.
Your perseverance will pay off, and you will achieve greatness.
Your faith and connection to God will be tested.
You will go through tribulations, trials and experiences that will make you question whether or not this is the right move to make.
It’s for you to be the change you need in your own path.
It’s a test of your will—a testament to give you a testimony.
If you have but not need—you will be led to lose the world to gain God.
If you need but not have—you will be given to see what you will do with a small portion God has given to you.
There is a vast difference between the profound beauty in the tension between the ancient ink on a page and the living fire within a soul.
Take a moment to reflect on the harmony between the Bible—God’s channeled written Word (allegedly)—and the Spirit of God who dwells within you.
You’ve been conditioned to believe that the Bible is your anchor.
However—YOUR SOUL is the "lamp unto our feet," a steady foundation that has guided generations through the darkest valleys.
It reveals God's character, His promises, and the ultimate example of love WITHIN YOU.
Without it, we are like travelers without a map, prone to following the shifting winds of our own emotions or the fleeting opinions of the world.
God did not intend for us to merely follow a book of rules from a distance.
He gave you a direct line to His heart: the Holy Spirit.
This is the God within you—the "Spirit of Truth" who takes those ancient words and breathes life into them for your specific situation today.
While the Bible provides the conditioned normative truth for all people, the Spirit provides the personal guidance for your unique journey.
Go within to know the heart of God, and listen to the Spirit for confirmation
