In the journey of life, our spiritual well-being is as vital as our physical and mental health. Just as our bodies require care and attention to thrive, so too do our spirits. Yet, amidst the busyness and distractions of modern life, it’s all too easy for our spiritual selves to wither away unnoticed. In this introspective exploration, we will delve into fifteen signs that may indicate our spiritual being is either dead or in a state of decline.
Throughout this examination, we will reflect on the teachings of Jesus Christ, whose life and ministry exemplified the importance of nurturing our spiritual selves. In Matthew 6:33, He admonishes us, “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” These words remind us of the primacy of spiritual well-being and the transformative power of aligning our lives with divine purpose.
As we delve deeper into the signs of spiritual decline, let us approach this journey with humility and openness, ready to confront areas of neglect or complacency in our own lives. For it is only through honest self-reflection and a willingness to heed the call of the spirit that we can hope to revive our spiritual being and experience true fulfilment.
HERE ARE 15 SIGNS YOU’RE EXPERIENCING A SPIRITUAL DEATH (AND SOUL REBIRTH):
1. You can’t remember certain parts of your early life.
Maybe you have blocked out certain memories in order to protect your soul from pain or grief. Maybe you went through traumatic experiences that your brain has chosen to forget so that you can move on. However, truly moving on might mean revisiting these old memories and coming to terms with them.
Visit a psychologist or therapist if you need help getting over painful memories or even remembering parts of your past. If this sounds like you, you might be experiencing a soul death.
2. You deal with anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues.
Of course, mental health is a complex issue, but experiencing periods of anxiety or depression could mean that your soul is going through a rebirthing process. You’re trying to shed your old skin and fully come to terms with your new self. This process doesn’t happen overnight, and it certainly can produce uncomfortable feelings.
3. You don’t feel “whole.”
Parts of yourself feel incomplete or broken, as if you can’t fully see the world around you. Your view of the world and yourself is fragmented, and you feel that parts of your soul are scattered in places that you haven’t yet found. If you feel that parts of yourself are missing, you might be going through a soul death.
