The soul seeks growth; as Truth, as Life, as Light, is in itself. God is, and so is life, light, truth, hope, love. And those that abide in same, grow. Those that abide in the shadow of the night, or the conditions that become or make for the fruits of these, do not grow.
Edgar CayceKnow first that no urge, no influence, is greater than the will of the self to do what it determines to accomplish in any direction - whether physically, mentally, or spiritually.
