Perhaps life has come crashing down on you, testing your spiritual faith and commitment. Perhaps you’re being confronted with challenges and beliefs that are causing you to doubt and question the universe and its divinity. Your faith is being tested. Know that the divine is always present and always has your back.  But right now it feels like the opposite. It feels like distrust and hopelessness, like your spiritual path has been tarnished. Trust that this is a step in your spiritual journey. Although we don't always see it at the time, there is healing and understanding to be gained here. Take some time out for yourself. Meditate and practice deep and personal self care. Be gentle with yourself.
