I’ve had struggles in my marriage for years and now it’s come to exercising the possibility of divorce. I’ve prayed and prayed about it asking why? I am convinced that this article could be answering one of my (why’s) ….. listening! I talk too much instead of listening. Spiritual director is such a lovely idea. I think it’s time I put my pride aside and find myself a spiritual director within my church. “Seek and you shall find”…..
Thank you for sharing this article 🙂

I really needed to read this! I tend to speak way too much and listen too little

I definitely think a pastor could be a Spiritual Director! I think what is great about a Spiritual Director is they meet with you one on one 🙂

Often when we seek counsel from the Lord he will change us before he deals with what we are praying about-just like it says in Matthew 7:5

Could a pastor be one? I love the photographs by the way, so beautiful and adept on showing God’s glory! <3

I’ve found I begin to counsel others before hearing what they are struggling with completely and before listening to the Holy Spirit and how I should be lead to counsel. It’s something I need to work on becoming better at.
