How do I give more power to my spiritual self?

By taking leaps of faith. The logical brain is a constant obstacle to spiritual experience, identifying places where the risk and reward are both high enough to merit a leap of faith is very much a way to flip that script.

Fret not, the logical mind will still find a way to intercede and keep you from fully believing, even should God decide to fulfill your wishes. I’m reasonably certain God plans it that way. If you’re pursuing a proper spiritual journey, each leap of faith will feel as special, unique, and amazing as the last. If you’re not, then you’ll be like a junkie looking for your God “fix.”

Resetting the mind after each successful leap seems like a dumb thing to do. Why wipe out momentum? But the mechanics of personality discovery and growth demand it. You need to give all of yourself to God, not just the parts that have realized Him.

Find your rhythm. When you feel it’s time for a major change, move into the new existence without hesitation or remorse. Trust in God to protect and help. The challenges will be interesting and worthwhile on their own.
