When we first begin our spiritual
journey in earnest embracing definite and consistent spiritual practices is an
important fundamental. These set times and forms provide a foundation and the
necessary discipline on which we build. In good time, as we become more adept,
many of the simple guidelines and structure we began with will naturally fall
away. This happens with no thought or conscious effort on our part, so if you
are asking yourself if it’s time to change your process, it is not. When it is
time for change it will happen naturally, if we are asking the question, then
we are attempting to hasten the process, which is not possible. Think of it
this way: when we plant a garden would we expect the plants to grow and mature
to our time table? Of course not, nor would we foolishly attempt to harvest our
crop before it was ready. The application of water, sunlight, nutrients, coupled
with our diligence in the quick removal of pests all affect the health and
stability of our garden and size of its bounty.
Our spiritual growth is just like all other natural growth in that it is affected by numerous factors. So, we tend our spiritual garden diligently but refuse to concern ourselves with timing, focusing instead on the work before us this day. In time the fruits will present themselves at exactly the perfect moment of awakening.

What sets our Spiritual garden apart
from others is it is eternal and will continue to give forth nourishment
unabated as long as we keep our eyes on the Miraculous, the true source,
avoiding the temptation to pull our crop up prematurely to check the roots for
signs of progress. Remaining diligent, but patient, soon we will find that our
understanding and demonstration has reached new heights, our Spiritual garden blossoming
as we cultivate still greater faith and service, becoming closer, day by day in
thought and deed to Divine Love toward all, the true demonstration of
our coming of age spiritually.
