Stymied growth is the natural outcome of religious rule-keeping because it takes the focus off the True Source who energizes us and turns it toward our own performance. This is not where life is found. Obeying the truth is not adherence to a list of rules, edicts, or laws. Obeying the truth is living by faith. It is entrusting our wellbeing to God.…
