Patience coupled with forgiveness are the engines of a balanced spiritual life. Explore in the following article ways to feel balance in your heart.
"Whoever would foster love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends." Proverbs 17:9
The events that happen in the world every day give us the opportunity to appreciate and value life. We often ask ourselves:
"Why is this happening to me?" or "Just at this time was it supposed to happen?"
There is no need to develop negative emotions or feel guilty when faced with negative or difficult situations. These situations are learning opportunities and tests that the Lord gives us so that we can heal.
Patience is one of the main pillars to overcome these problems and reconcile us in the way of the Holy Spirit. With patience, we will find the strength to continue and trust in divine guidance. Forgiveness in life is another important tool to reconnect with others. By forgiving, we open the doors of our heart and remember that God shows us his mercy in all the blessings we receive.
"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Ephesians 4:32
We must not forget that there are many people around us, such as our family members, loved ones, friends and acquaintances who walk with us on our clear path. We will not be alone as we will have examples and ideas that will give us hope and blessings from the Holy Spirit.
Rejecting those who offer help or try to offer words of encouragement is not appropriate for a person seeking healing. We must always ask ourselves:
"Can we forgive those who sin against us?" This question allows us to move forward on the path of spiritual evolution.
If we want to approach the path of the Lord, we must do so without doubt and without guilt. Then we will understand that our faith and our goodness can be completely surrendered to the Lord and to the Holy Spirit.
"Do we not all have one Father? Did not one God create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful to one another?" Malachi 2:10
God in His grace will guide us to succeed in His holy plan, He will prepare us to enter the gates of Heaven. Although the road is not easy, we are lucky and we will have people who will guide us along the path of faith.
To develop a strong endurance in love and faith, we must draw closer to our Heavenly Father through prayer and Bible reading.
These actions will give us the perfect opportunity to connect with our inner self and the great pillars of the Holy Spirit.
Isolating ourselves in quiet solitude and idealism is a common mistake in today's society. Let us learn to live in harmony with God's created creatures, recognizing and valuing their differences and dignity. By forgiving those who have hurt us and offering maximum support and love, we can show special love to those who need it most.
"Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts. Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon." Isaiah 55:7
Life is a journey where we will have trials and tribulations and opportunities for growth, love and forgiveness. By following the path of the Holy Spirit and trusting in divine guidance, we can find the fulfillment and peace that come from a deep relationship with God's love.
The spiritual journey is a journey of faith, patience and love. It requires commitment and willingness to grow and transform ourselves. As we draw closer to the Lord, we cultivate a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit and experience the fullness of His love and grace.
No matter how challenging the road may be, let us trust that God is always with us, guiding and strengthening us. Let us go forward with courage, knowing that in our spiritual quest we will find blessings and the peace that only God can bestow.
