When things get tough, whether in your inner world or your outer world, remember that you are a spirit inhabiting a human form that can only operate because you exist in it. Without you, without your spirit energy, your human form would be nothing but an empty set of clothes. Turn more often to this truth of yourself and you may soon find that what is going on in the world outside of you is not so important. On the other hand, you may discover that what disturbs you on the inside is something most important, for that something on the inside is something that your spirit is trying to alert you to. It’s trying to get your attention, because something is blocking its fuller expression. What is it? Only you can find out.

Adeptness of spirit leads to an ability to go with the flow of life, not getting too attached to what comes to draw you away from honing skills of the Divine. Keep your focus inward, attempting to advance as much as possible each day, to fulfill the desires of your spirit self, even while you fully attend to the desires of your worldly self. Both selves deserve full attention so that balance is achieved in life. Though we speak often of keeping the inner world lit and alive, we also give equal attention to the outer world. Most people, however, lean heavily in the direction of the outer world and so our missives stress the need for the opposite, the inner journey as well. There is always more that can be done to keep a good balance!

It is best to concentrate on your own inner life and your own inner dilemmas than to dwell too much on those of others. Everyone has a life plan to tackle and fulfill. Some life plans are more challenging than others because that is what is wanted, usually to help the person/spirit/soul advance. Some lives may not look too challenging on the outside but you can bet there are things going on inside, even if those inner challenges are simply pushes from spirit to get more involved in life and not waste it. Those with big outer challenges may also be the ones who go furthest in the advancement of their spirits. So, along with your concerns for them, hold them also in awe for the tough life they have chosen to challenge themselves with!

Keep upon a path of heart, a path that aligns mind, body and spirit, that looks always for the right direction, that knows no bounds. A spirit led life is a life to yearn for indeed, for when spirit leads all doors are open, all focus is honed, and all intentions are directed toward good. Without fail, a path of heart will lead one to the known and the unknown, to experiences that confirm life and all its questions and that confront life and all its questions in the deepest ways. A path of heart challenges the heart, the mind and the spirit so that every day is a day of wonder.

Let not the vicissitudes of life get in the way of your spiritual growth. The inner path, the path of direct heart centered growth, is the path of the spirit, the part of you that does not judge or condemn but only focuses on going where it knows to go, onward and upward. Know that your spirit does not grow sad, does not falter, does not grow weary. It is patient as it waits for you to remember its existence, as it waits for you to catch up to its urgings, and as it waits for you to follow its path. The path of spirit is the evolutionary path of true growth in any life. Find that path and you have found your purpose.
