Let us be honest: nobody posts their becoming season on Instagram. We show the butterfly, not the cocoon. The harvest, not the planting.
But what if the messy middle is actually where the magic happens?
The Myth of Comfortable Growth
I used to believe that spiritual growth should feel peaceful. Reality check: Growth rarely feels peaceful while it is happening.
Signs You Are Actually Growing
- You are uncomfortable - if everything feels too easy, you might be coasting
- Old patterns do not fit anymore
- Your prayers are changing - asking for character, not just comfort
- People notice - even when you do not see it
Keep going. Keep showing up. Keep choosing growth even when it is hard.
