When we suddenly discover the innate calling for greatness in
our lives, it's important to follow through on our higher voice
of wisdom. In most instances, our life purpose is being
presented to us and that means we must follow our gut feelings
to achieve the spiritual growth that is necessary for our
passage into higher levels of awareness, acceptance, and inner
peace. This is especially true for those of us who have become
so caught up with the daily balancing act of juggle family,
work, home, and other social obligations.

Though all of us enter this world with no preconceptions or
prejudgments, our physical and mental beings become bombarded
by external and environmental conditioning. While much of our
upbringing and belief systems are constructively shaped by our
families, teachers, and society in general, we sometimes become
too consumed and inhibited by these traditional values and
roles. In order to create an environment for positive spiritual
development, we must nurture our higher consciousness by
deprogramming most of what we’ve been mentally taught. That
doesn’t mean we must stray away from moral values and ethics,
but it means that we must totally absolve our emotional
limitations that lead to negativity and mental barriers.
To achieve spiritual growth, one must begin to think and truly
feel with an absolutely uninhibited mind and spirit. Within the
core of our being, there is a wild mustang, a free spirit
wanting to desperately break free from the mental fences we’ve
built around ourselves; it’s in a way, the safety net that our
mind has created for us to shelter us from harmful situations.
However, that wild mustang, free spirit is your authentic self;
and whether you choose to follow it or not, your authentic self
wants to be released from your mental and emotional grips...and
it will work fervently towards that end whether you want it to
or not. This is your soul's way of making you stop dead in your
tracks and causing you to spring into action. Why? The primary
reason your soul speaks to you is to give you the appropriate
clues to achieve and maintain balance in all aspects of your
life -- mind, body, and spirit. It truly wants you to grow
spiritually so you are readied to receive the blessings that
the Universal flow of energy wants you to have, that is, living
in complete balance.
To help you understand more fully, I am sharing with you the
following five important paths to spiritual growth. When you
become aware of the paths that we often follow, you are better
prepared to walk them with clarity and positive intent.
* Spiritual growth during hardship. In turbulent times in our
lives, we often find that we must turn to a Higher Source of
wisdom for comfort, guidance, and reason. While we may not
always like the feeling of distress, it is in these times that
we attain some of the highest levels of spiritual growth. It is
also in these times, that we become closer to God, our Creator.
This will enable us to express a deep and profound connection
with our Source and a sense of oneness with the world around
us.
* Spiritual growth in relationships. When we enter into a
marriage, partnership, or experience the joy of a new addition
to the family -- we often discover the spiritual element of
life here as well. Feelings of deep love and admiration fill
our hearts and souls with an overflowing abundance. And as we
all know, love is a deeply spiritual emotion that can only
flourish and grow. When we willingly share our love and
compassion with others, we actually strengthen our own
resources.
* Spiritual growth in work. In work? Really? Yes, when we put
110 percent into our work efforts, we may not always be
recognized for our productivity; but we know in our hearts that
we have accomplished something, and we have succeeded in doing
our part toward creating a finished product or beneficial
outcome -- and that makes all the difference in how we perceive
life. What we give out we get back 110 percent.
* Spiritual growth during travel. Have you ever taken time to
observe the world around you? Whether you’ve seen the marvels
of Mount Rushmore, the Grand Canyon, the grand strand, or the
rolling hills of Appalachia, you've touched the face of God.
Spirituality is everywhere you look if only you seek it. I look
in awe at the beauty of nature all around me and how it never
fails to bring a sense of great joy and inner peace into my
heart.
* Spiritual growth in death. As harsh as this may seem, death
is the final passage to the Highest Realm of peace. When we
experience the passing of a loved one, we go through several
stages of grief and the mourning process. When we have reached
the final stage of acceptance, it is then that we have grown
spiritually. We have learned that while we may not always be
able to physically see our loved ones, they will always reside
in our hearts and memories forever. Spiritual growth comes when
we understand that this eternal flame of love can never be
extinguished.
As the tides of the many seasons come and go, we learn that
from spiritual growth, comes a new dawning of a deep and
spiritual recognition and awareness of life, love, and sense of
purpose. Remember, the wild mustang, the free spirit in you --
your authentic self, is ready to be released from your everyday
confines. All you must do is ask for spiritual guidance and the
Universal flow of energy will give you the soul power and tools
to discover how you can truly enjoy what your life destiny is
and will be.
