Sometimes you need to shut the world out for a period of time. During that time you will be able to focus on just letting yourself see more of your inner self and just listening to what God has to tell you. This kind of meditation is necessary for both your mental and spiritual growth.
When humans find a balance between both the spiritual and mental parts, we create a certain sense of peace. When we enjoy our solitude while putting our energy on self-reflection and prayer, we learn humility and gratefulness. The feeling of gratitude and humility will grow stronger during this journey because we will put more effort on understanding that we are just humans and that there is someone much greater and powerful than us, which is God. A God that is waiting for us to take His hand and follow His will. What God has for us is much greater than we could ever imagine. Sometimes, some things in life do not go the way we want them to go because there is something better God has in store for us.
In our solitude we may need to face all kind of difficult emotions, but after we have faced them and embraced them, it will be an experience that will be conductive to our growth.
Sometimes, experiences that turns out to be related to your difficult emotions, will most likely feel like a tough challenge to face. Some experiences will be very painful, but after you have mastered getting through every feeling, you will gain somethings that are very powerful. That would be strenght, knowledge, humility, patience and emotional intelligence. This will only be gained when you truly are willing to face everything in life that is related to your spirit, soul and mind. This means that you need to embrace all of your emotions, face them, feel them and then learn how to act on them. When things get too heavy, you need to give your burdens to God and put your trust in Him. God will show you a way even if you do not see a way.
