We have entered the world of the Spirit. Our next function
is to grow in understanding and effectiveness. This is not an overnight matter.
It should continue for our lifetime.
The word “entered” and the phrase “entered into the world
of the Spirit” are very significant they imply action, the beginning, getting
into, a prerequisite to maintaining my spiritual growth, the “Spirit” being the
immaterial part of me. Barriers to my spiritual growth our self-centeredness
and the materialistic focus on worldly things. Spirituality means devotion to
spiritual instead of worldly things, it means obedience to God’s will for me. I
understand spiritual things to be: unconditional love, joy, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, self-control and humility. Anytime I allow selfishness,
dishonesty, resentments and fear to be a part of me, I block Spiritual things.
As I maintain my sobriety, growing spiritually becomes a lifelong process. My
goal is spiritual growth, accepting that I’ll never have spiritual perfection.
