Spiritual relationship help.
Building self esteem.
Suffering is part of life but are you experiencing
more frustration, disappointment, worry, and sadness than you need to?
It’s easy to understand
why. Words sting. Dreams fall apart. Hearts break. To-do lists are long.
Time is short. Perhaps someone has wronged you. Maybe you have been
excluded, betrayed, or unfairly judged, leaving you feeling lonely or
afraid. Perhaps you are dealing with a rebellious teenager, a difficult
person, or have received disheartening medical tests results. Maybe
financial troubles overwhelm you. Perhaps you harbor resentment and are
finding it difficult to forgive the pain of an undeserved wound. Or you may
be feeling as if you could use some spiritual relationship help and building
self esteem.
If you have ever
struggled with the following, I invite you to keep reading:
-
self-loathing, lack of
confidence
-
difficult people,
loneliness, or unhealthy relationships
-
the fear of other
people's opinion, shame, or guilt
-
not understanding your
purpose in life
-
addiction or bad habits
-
fear, worry, or stress
-
spiritual
disconnectedness
I begin many of my
mornings immersed in the peace of early dawn. Under the comfort of my
covers, I vow I will carry that peace with me throughout the day. I am sure
I can do it. I know I can.
Some blessed days
actually remain peaceful. I can see the laundry room floor. My husband,
Dave, caught the mouse that scurried across the family room the night
before. I find my car keys twenty-one minutes before I need to be at an
appointment that is a twenty-minute-drive away. I utter “good-bye” just
before the battery on my cell phone dies. And I feel like I am at least
partially deserving of the adulation I receive on Mother’s Day.
Other days, I am jolted
from my dream-induced serenity—sometimes within minutes of my feet hitting
the floor. Someone tries to control me and I resist; I prefer to be in
control. I wound a loved one’s spirit with poorly chosen words and have too
much pride to make amends. I am not included in an outing; I long to belong.
I allow my feelings to be hurt by a person struggling with his own issues,
but I suffer in silence rather than work the situation out.
Sometimes, I strive to do
better. Other times, in all honesty, I don’t try very hard.
What happened to the
peace of dawn? I wonder. I am a master of self-sufficiency. I know all about
the techniques for getting life “right.” I understand I can experience the
peace and joy of loving relationships and live with meaning if I try hard
enough.
Imagine my surprise when,
one day, I discovered the opposite is true. I let my mask drop long enough
to learn, in the words of Jesus, “By myself I can do nothing.”
Teilhard de Chardin, a
French theologian, said, “We are not human beings having a spiritual
experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” Spiritual
beings having a human experience rather than human beings having a spiritual
experience.
Our approach needs to be
spiritual rather than a frenzy to do better and accomplish more. Only on the
spiritual journey can we experience the profound sense of love and meaning
we desire.
The key is learning how
to be drawn into and immersed in grace-every day, moment by moment.
The problem is most of us
are never taught how . . . until now.
