| Spiritual vigor does not mean the experience of energy or ready inclination to
pursue God.
It simply means you cannot be turned to the left or to the right.
It also means you have no baggage - that you have crossed the line. You have
seen that you are only a traveler here, and that your citizenship is in Heaven.
Energy is not wasted, but is efficiently directed into obedience.
You are faithful. You love, not because you have emotional feelings, but
because Love is free to pour through you when there is consistent obedience.
And, Soldier of The Cross, there is a marked absence of burnout and
self-awareness.
He isn't pushing us, He is wooing us.
