The obstacle is the doorway to God
It has been said, "The obstacle is the doorway to God." What this simply means is obstacles we encounter are often the catalyst for us to go deeper into our spiritual journey and to walk our talk.
Many people claim a level of spirituality that when confronted with "life" they respond in a way that is unloving, angry, fearful and anxiety ridden and contrary to what they claim to believe. They appear to be absent of trust.
Life will always offer us opportunities to delve deeper. And yet, many people are living in a state of unawareness regarding life's challenges. They are a part of life's experiences.
It's not so much the situations that happen that is important. Rather, it is how we respond to every obstacle we experience that allows us to know if we are congruent in what we say we believe and what we actually do believe.
Do we really trust to the deepest level of our soul that all is as it should be? That every situation that we find challenging is merely the opportunity to become the person we believe ourselves to be and to grow deeper spiritually?
As has also been said, "Actions speak louder than words."
What are your actions?
Blessings,
