Thoughts on growth for you today! I love studying spiritual growth and development. Here’s a simple observation from working with myself and others on the journey of becoming in life:
Simple counselor’s observation: what’s not up to date in ourselves? What needs to be lit into the present season of our lives? What needs to be confessed, into thanks, into fullness… What child like parts need to become adult still in us? The whole self is meant to be in a constant maturation process. We are becoming full fruit, or whole houses!
Sometimes we have to go back and recover lost seasons, to be fully in our present one. To confess and cleanse unoccupied rooms or chapters in our life’s journey.
To update our lives, and return to places which still need healing, in order to catch the whole self up into the present and towards the future. We can only shine from the parts of the house which are already inhabited!
It’s valuable to clean the whole house as we go! Finding some dark rooms in our pasts, helps light up the whole house now! We want the whole house of ourselves shining on a hill, and portable in Love, into the valleys of our callings.
What rooms are still unlit in us? How can we bring Light there. And enjoy discovering each newly lit room. Let’s light up the whole house! To retrieve and restore rooms in ourselves in Love is the first step to helping others also integrate their inner houses!
