In one of my psychology classes I learned that we humans go through different phases in life, from birth to about 10 years old we listen to our parents or adults without questioning their decisions. After 11-12 years old our brains start thinking more logically and we are able to understand things of greater dificlty. This is also when we start questioning adults and their beliefs. I mean if I am honest, this phase was my rebel days when everyone was wrong and I was right. (did anyone else went trough this phase?)

We start questioning things, for example, in my case I questioned the existence of God. I could not believe that God existed and I hated the fact that he took my dad from this world and I grew up dad-less. This is what happened to me, I went from being very religious, going to retreats, bible studies, and catechisms on Sundays to believe God was powerless because he never did ( I wanna say a bad word but I’ll say) ANYTHING for me. I did not ask for much, I only wanted my mom and my dad and He never gave me that so I started questioning his existence.

I remember just cussing God out and calling Him names, and all type of hurtful words when I was upset. I have just recently understood that even though I was mean to God, calling God all kinds of names, even in those dark moments, I was having a relationship with Him. We all make mistakes, and it is humanly to recognize and apologize. But, having that connection even when I could not stand God, was critical for my survival. Deep inside believed it or not, I always knew He was there listening.

It is important to always connect with source, your relationship with God should be the most important realtionship in your life. Yould always be aware of His presence in the every day life. I wanna share how having a relationship with God helps your life.

What does having a personal relationship with God/your spirituality mean? 

First, we should define what it means to have a relationship with God. It means a focus on a loving relationship with God and others and not a focus on the abstract rules or doctrine. It’s letting yourself putting trust in someone that is only there for your benefit. For someone that will never abandon you. 

Research has shown to prove that a connection between your beliefs and your sense of well being can help with your mentality and how you see yourself in the world. Positive beliefs, comfort, and strength gained from religion, meditation, and/or prayer can contribute to your well-being. It may not cure an illness, but it can promote healing in one’s life. 

With God, He is with you always. 

You’re not alone when it comes to him. God is there to oversee and lovingly direct your path in life. Walking with you by your side. You may ask yourself, “If he is there for my own good, then why doesn’t he stop what negativity is to come?”. That is because he is all-knowing, but that means he wants you to learn and grow. He wants to see you succeed in life with the lessons that you will learn. 

Gives you a sense of community.

We all come into this world alone and we leave alone in a way. But that doesn’t mean we have to be alone physically. You and other people have this amazing relationship with God. All different starts and meanings to it. Since spiritual groups gather, this gives you a community to go to. A place where you are one and the same with others despite what you look like. 

Restores your hope & optimism. 

Sometimes, in life, we lose our way. Certain events cause us to divert off the path that is planned for us. We lose the hope and the once certain optimism that we once have. Spirituality can help give people a brighter and more hopeful outlook on life. Negativity will get us nowhere but in a dark pit of sadness. 

It may seem like it’s impossible to try and have a relationship with God. Maybe you think that you won’t be forgiven or that you don’t deserve such love. That is far from the truth. Having this relationship can help relieve your stress, depression, and anxiety. It gives you more of a purpose and meaning to your life that you probably didn’t know you were looking for.
