So you were invited…… to climb the mountains ⛰️ of Spirituality…..it took but little time to realize that you didn’t realize the trip you had agreed to take would require much more than physical agility and stamina. At it’s core the training would center around your willingness to own your shortcomings and exercise the necessary skills and energy to conquer them.
The first “avalanche” you encountered was that every complaint….. accusation……. Misdeed….. was the equivalent of falling and that fall continued until you owned it and did your best to set things right.

Then the lead Serpa “ the Holy Spirit” gave a progress analysis and a summary:

“ This climb is the way to completeness and stability in life….. it is the only path. You nor anyone else has ever reached the Summit….. except one …. “ Jesus.”

Realizing that is the core of the mountain ⛰️. Some lose interest or climb halfheartedly because they know perfection isn’t possible. However a few accept that and continue to work towards the summit never using that as an excuse not to push themselves. I have been climbing for 50 years and just when I think I’m getting close ….. my humanity exhibits itself and I struggle to survive the avalanche 🛘. However for me the summit is in my heart and I see the only perfect mountaineer sitting on that pinnacle.”
