What does your spirituality do for you?

Question

I'm NOT interested in it saving your soul, etc.

I mean, what does it do to improve your life now?

Does it altar the way you perceive things?

Do you feel it helps you grow as a person and be better to others?

Holy Missionary: Judging by your answer it does not help you be better to others. It would have been easier if you just said no, but hey, if you wanted to demonstate the point, I have to admit it was pretty effective.

Answer 1

My friends say I am much better person now. My family says the same thing. Some of my friends, who could not accept the change, even said I was out of my mind.

Peace and blessings!

Answer 2

Yes all the above, but I suggest you study the bible first. At least the Gospels in the New Testament. Even if you do not except Jesus as a savior, His words will give you a foundation to live by and will make your life easier if you can follow them. Faith comes from hearing and reading the word.
By doing so, you will understand the difference of a path of righteousness where fertile soil will grow you seed, rather than a rocky path where your faith and education will not grow properly. Spirituality can come later, but it is like Jesus said, don't give a baby meat. You give them milk first so later they can digest the meat when they have grown. Like school, you don't learn Algebra before math. It is a slow progression and if you hurry it, you will become confused. I like to learn about all religions now and I read a lot, so I suggest you do the same.

Answer 3

That is the best question you could possibly ever ask. The answer, as a follower of Jesus Christ, is everything.

My life is an utter joy to live. My life has complete meaning and purpose. I have a familiy whose sole objective is to love and care for eachother, more and more, every day. We speak to eachother truthfully, but lovingly. We support eachother when times are hard. We're not perfect, but we're becoming perfected and one day we will be perfect. Our souls aren't saved, but they are made alive. We truly live by the power of the ressurection of Jesus Christ. That's why mine does for me.

Answer 4

I just feel like it makes me a better person. I'm happier, I handle bad or hard situations better knowing that I'm not alone. It makes me want to accomplish more, work harder, view the world as a better place and do more for others.

Answer 5

well I don't feel I'm better than my fellow christians, but I know for fact that I'm better than those who are not christians. Why? well for example I feel great knowing that I'm in the true faith. Like others religions are not very peaceful, doesn't forgive their followers, mislead people's way of life, and destory life. I have faith in the holy father, in the end Jesus will save my soul.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Spirituality is infinite. I am always learning. It makes my awareness keener which does help me see things I was not able to see before. Yes. It does help me grow as a person to be what I was created to be and be able to see and accept others for who they are and want to be in their life.
