Spiritual Guidance Assistance

A  spiritual mentor is the person who helps us understand and experience God’s presence in our lives.  We usually have more than one spiritual mentor as we go through different seasons in our lives. 

As your spiritual mentor, I will do my best to offer you  examples on how to integrate spirituality into your daily life during times of transition, loss or disillusionment.

The goal of our time together is to provide spiritual aid in many aspects of your life. Devoted one on one time with a spiritual mentor provides emotional,  social and spiritual support for those in need or those who may be suffering a crisis alone.

As a spiritual mentor, I will  help you identify six 'pervading evils': prejudice, silence, ignorance, fear, hypocrisy and power. These 'evils' hinder our personal growth as Christians, hurt other people, and create barriers that stop healthy relationships from forming.

Prayer Partner: One who prays for you; one who holds you before God as you walk through the struggles of addiction or everyday life.

A safe time for Vulnerability: Having a safe person to feel the pain and burden of your current situation and knowing you have a companion on the journey can make all the difference. We can have the burden and responsibility of needing to have it all together at times.  This time together creates a space in your routine where it’s OK not to be OK. Having a Spiritual mentor can help carry your doubts, your questions, your burdens, your disappointments and your failures with no judgment. 

Someone who tells you the truth: This experience can be a prophetic voice of correction and challenge. The person who tells us not what we want to hear but what we need to hear, all from a heart of grace, love and healing. It may hurt in the moment but it can often keep us from a deeper, more damaging hurt further down the road. 

A time to practice humility: Meeting with a spiritual mentor is an intentional act of humility. Submitting to the wisdom of another is not always an easy thing to do, no one human has all the answers but you will be introduced to the one who does - our ever-loving, every-caring GOD.
