Often we
confuse things and think that spiritual life means being a good person, not
stealing, killing, walking in bad places and having bad friends, going to
church on Sunday, being there for praise, or at least "Blessed is the
Kingdom of Father and Son and the Holy Spirit," to read Christian
literature.
No, it's not
a spiritual life!
A spiritual
man, a true Christian, is the one who, with his baptism, and then, as an adult,
with his heart has sworn to God to remain forever with Him and to Him.
A spiritual
man is the athlete who has stood out in a life that differs from the human
crowd and runs with all the speed of his soul so that he can subdue the heavens
and be able to force and sack the heavenly kingdom.
A spiritual
person is the one who, with a sparkling gaze and stretched chest, has begun and
runs to climb the sky.
