Five process of Spiritual Formation.

(From this morning read of, Cultivating Your Inner Life by Edmund Chan)

"Our coming to Jesus is the first step towards spiritual formation in our lives! It comes full circle. Our search ultimately leads us to the One to whom we must surrender in a fresh and fuller way. 

Our search. Our struggle. Our surrender. Our service. Our significance. 

Five process of spiritual formation. These are the five milestone in our inward journey of cultivating our inner life! God lovingly leads us inward in our pain (our search and struggle), to move us upwards in our posture (our surrender and service) so as to launch us forward in our true power (our significance)."
