breaking through the egg

Spiritual resource to share: breakthroughs

Have you ever heard this "Everytime something good happens, it is inevitable that something bad happens." A friend and I were talking about spiritual growth and eggs. You see, she had been feeling that things were getting more difficult and everytime she felt she made some progress, she felt that there was some kind of negative reaction to it.

So we talked eggs.


Now if she were a baby chick inside the egg, as she grew, the egg would seem to get smaller and smaller. It wouldn't be that the egg shell turned mean and tried to hinder her growth. It simply meant that she was growing beyond the confines of the egg and was nearing a breakthrough.

Is this a great illustration about spiritual growth??

Christian Science explains the law of God's omnipotence that says God is all power, so there is no room for ANY other power. God is omnipresent and so there is NO room for any other presence.

When we feel confined or trapped physically or mentally, we are feeling matter's limitation - the egg shell, so to speak. Seeing that God is all-powerful, we can break through any form of limitation. Being confined is not a natural state because it is not from God.

It would only be superstition that would try to claim that every spurt of spiritual growth is followed by a negative feeling. And the truth is - we are constantly growing spiritually and constantly breaking through the limitations of material beliefs.
