In our spiritual journey, there comes a time when everything we've built up—our knowledge, our accomplishments, our sense of certainty — begins to feel inadequate. This phase, often referred to as the spiritual mid-life, is disorienting. It's a period where the foundations we've laid seem to crumble, and what once provided security no longer does.
During this time, we're called to confront the deeper motivations behind our spiritual practices. It's not just about growing in knowledge or pushing ourselves to do more. It's about recognizing that our previous efforts may have been driven by insecurities rather than genuine love.
This process of dismantling is painful but necessary. Embrace the discomfort, for it’s a sign that real growth is happening. The spiritual mid-life is not a step backward—it's an invitation to a more profound relationship with God, one that goes beyond external achievements and taps into the core of who we are.
