Journey Toward Something Beautiful
It's easy to feel stuck, especially when it seems like the world around us is divided into rigid lines of right and wrong, good and bad. We’re often caught in the trap of “us vs. them,” battling against the voices that challenge or oppose us. It’s a place that fuels resentment and fear, and it's exhausting. But what if this very struggle could be the key to our collective transformation? Imagine a world where we didn’t need to hold on so tightly to certainty and judgment, where our differences became a wellspring of growth rather than division.
In times of uncertainty, there’s an opportunity for profound spiritual evolution. Just like Jesus, who lived in the tension of loving both outcasts and the powerful, we can choose to embrace the discomfort of change. He invited us to love even our enemies, not as a sacrifice, but as a call to become something deeper, more inclusive, and more loving. The liminal space—the place of holy uncertainty—is where the most transformative work can take place.
Let’s hold onto this truth: growth comes not from rigid certainties, but from openness, humility, and the willingness to continuously evolve. Keep your heart open, trust the journey, and know that you are evolving toward something beautiful.
Going Deeper
What if faith isn’t about holding on to unshakable certainty? What if it’s about embracing the unknown with humility and trust? Too often, we think of faith as a fixed set of beliefs, but the most powerful faith is rooted in continual becoming. It’s the willingness to grow, to learn, and to adapt as we encounter new experiences, people, and perspectives. Jesus showed us this, living a life where his understanding expanded with each encounter. He didn’t retreat into easy answers; he stayed in the tension, growing and loving from that place.
Faith, like evolution, is ongoing. We don't need all the answers right now. Instead, we can trust that each step of growth is guided by something larger than ourselves. Evolutionary thinking asks us to hold the present gently, acknowledging that the future is unknown, but still full of promise. It’s this kind of faith—flexible, self-correcting, and constantly expanding—that leads us toward the divine.
Today, choose to embrace the uncertainty of your own journey. Trust that you are being guided, that growth is happening, even when it feels uncomfortable. Stay in the liminal space and let the evolution unfold. Your faith can evolve, too.
Summary: Faith is not about rigid certainties or binary thinking, but rather about continuous growth, self-correction, and transformation. It is a process that evolves through humility, openness, and the embrace of uncertainty, especially in response to new experiences and perspectives. Like evolution, faith is a continual journey of becoming, where we move beyond fixed judgments and embrace the transformative power of divine guidance.
