PROMPT January 15th

Write your entry today about commitment. Committing to an activity, craft, person, way of being, etc. Consider the concepts of diligence, honesty, and responsibility. What does commitment look like to you?

Commitment is steadfastness!
Moving forward in the path of faith
no matter what obstacles lay in your way,
no matter what tests or difficulties confront you.

Commitment is a spiritual attribute that is composed of four other attributes: steadfastness, diligence, honesty, and responsibility. At different times in my life, I have been confronted by obstacles and difficulties that test each of these attributes. Once I pass one test, I am confronted with another. If I do not pass a test, I am confront with the test again until I pass it.

Life on the material plane
is one test after another
each focusing on developing
spiritual attribute
through commitment and stadfastness.
