This every day reality that we live in has a great importance in our spiritual growth and progress. The density of it makes us have to work for spirituality. The struggles and challenges we are presented with offer us the opportunity to utilize our free will to move either closer to or farther away from the Divine. Nothing is easy, because we have forgotten that we are merely parts of the Divine body. But it is that very difficulty that makes our lives here so precious. Third dimensional reality is, in fact, a womb that helps our souls to develop, so that we can be reborn with greater skills and understanding; each challenge helps us to cherish our spiritual moments that much more.

Today, when you are presented with a challenge, take a moment to experience gratitude for that challenge, knowing that its purpose is to help you grow. Today, when you are presented with a choice, make an effort to cooperate with the good, that it might prevail. Be aware of your growth and progress today, and of all of the opportunities you are given to reconnect with the Divine on a daily basis.
