The Uncertainty of the Spiritual Path

Life gives us only & exactly what we need to know, to learn the next lesson.⁠ ⁠

This can include leading us to believe (𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨!) that we have found “the one,” that we have finally found our “life purpose,” or other forms of certainty that lead us to COMMIT to something…⁠ ⁠

So that we can learn from it.⁠ ⁠

This can be especially difficult to comprehend, when life has given us all the signs that we are on the “right track” - but that track ends up leading somewhere unexpected or painful.⁠ ⁠

In these moments it can feel like God is cruel.⁠ ⁠

We may question the higher intelligence and whether she truly has our best interests in mind.⁠ ⁠

We return to the innocent question of, WHY?!⁠ ⁠

Why me?⁠

Why this?⁠

Why now?⁠ ⁠

And yet these moments are undeniably, always the most transformative.⁠ ⁠

Amidst the pain & confusion, we are forced to meet ourselves.⁠ ⁠

We are brought to our knees to experience the true meaning of surrender,⁠ ⁠

And upon rising from the ashes once again, we are given an opportunity to recognize what it’s all been for ✨⁠
