Lets face it. There are moments in our lives when we feel like we are not doing anything good to make our situations better. Its like continually struggling against the strong current of the river to make sure we do not drown. The current represents all of our lifes struggles. And unless we take a momentary stop and examine what causes the commotion, we may find ourselves drowning sooner than later.
Even if we prepare and plan, the end result is not ours to decide. If God does not want us to be there, then we will never be there. Its all a matter of doing the things that we think is good and then trusting the Creator to handle the rest. My spiritual life journey is marked with ups and downs. But if you have solid trust to the Author of our lives, everything will turn out as it should be.
You have to be aware though that the journey will not be that easy. It can be challenging and can take time before you master it. But if you are serious about it, then devoting your time will be worth it. Below are effective methods that you can use to help you develop your spiritual strength even more.
Daily journaling. Get a notebook and write all the good things that happened to you on that day. You can call it a diary, a keepsake or anything you want. What matters is, you write down things that has transpired within the day regardless of how simple it could be. This will not only make you appreciate that great day that you have but will also help you realize what you did wrong and how can you make it better.
Spending minutes in silence. There is no substitute to silence when it comes to communicating with God. It is a necessity. It is only through silence that you get to hear what He has to say. With the amount of noise we experience everyday, finding a silent place and time can be difficult. But if you practice it, the rewards can be great.
Offering daily thanksgiving. Complaining is a waste of energy. It gives you bad vibes which can ultimately affect the quality of work that you do within the day. Thanksgiving on the other hand has a very beneficial effect. It makes you feel good and allows you to start the day right. No matter how small, thank the Lord for it.
Thinking about the positive side of things. Bad things do happen. There is no denying that. They can come any time, anywhere. It is beyond your control. What you can control however is how you react on it. Instead of succumbing to the negative vibes, take a step back and hear what God is trying to tell you about it. How can this be better.
Reading the Bible. Last but the most important thing is to read the Bible. No matter how busy you are, find time to read excerpts from the Bible. Its the best way to strengthen your Faith. Plus, its great for empowering and refreshing your thoughts.
There is a limit to how much we are capable of doing. We are just humans and our capacities do not allow us to manage everything. Surrender all the things to God including your happiness and sadness and trust in his divine goodness. In the end, everything will go as He planned.
