12 Ways to Overcome the Spiritual Blahs
A holy fire was ignited in your heart when you first met Jesus. You discovered true joy, peace and love. God sparked a spiritual hunger in you, which awakened a desire to pursue Him. You probably sensed an insatiable appetite for the Bible, you wanted to pray and you looked for every chance to fellowship with other Christians.
But the Holy Spirit’s flame can smolder if you quench it or neglect it. This might be because you’ve allowed sin to control you, the busyness of life distracted you or trials and difficulties wore you down. But faith isn’t measured by feelings. Sometimes our zeal cools because God is calling us deeper.
David said in Psalm 63:1b (NASB), “My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” If you are in a dry season, don’t despair. You might feel like you are in a spiritual rut, but God allows dry times to stir our thirst for Him. It means your roots are going to grow deeper!
