First of all, you need to cultivate a consistent, all the time connection and interaction with your adjuster. Not just in challenges. In your triumphs, success you need to learn that it has been made as result of the work of your divine companion. You learn how to be grateful, thankful. Your strength, faith, belief is renewed.
Spiritual growth does not happen in a far away realm. It happens within you. God is not concerned with how much you know or have memorized. That is not the quality. He is concerned about what you yearn for. What you aspire to. It is this that leads to spiritual growth.
The challenges, difficulties, triumphs, disasters all contribute creatively to your growth.
That is the true meaning of "in weakness I am made strong". Your faith - the full assertion of human thought - must brush up against life. It must play out in real circumstance. It is here in the theater of life that it's tested and your choices to manifest the fruits of the spirit, loving service, unselfish devotion, courageous loyalty, sincere fairness, enlightened honesty, undying hope, confiding trust, merciful ministry, unfailing goodness, forgiving tolerance, and enduring peace play out in real life through divine acting.
Be steadfast to the guidance of your adjuster - this is where the magic happens. How can strength be displayed if the conditions to show it do not appear? Weakness must show, difficulty and challenges must present themselves to! Many do not want to hear this, but this is the truth. It's when this opportunity is presented that you can now use a spiritual ideal (faith, patience, hope etc.) and combat it in your practical life. When you do so something amazing happens. You face a storm and come through it - you realize it was not all you thought it to be - and see that the spiritual insight applied in your practical life is real. In weakness you are strong. You gain valuable firsthand confidence in what was a purely spiritual ideal - you see it come to life. Nobody can tell you otherwise. You know. Going forward now you possess something within you that you can always draw on in those circumstances and that my friend is growth.
So now you are facing difficulties. Stop. Worship God sincerely, glorify him, bask in His presence and dwell on his nature and character. After you have done this. In your mind make a decision to listen and heed your adjuster in all things. Your adjuster is with you, every second of every minute of every hour until you leave this world. Ask your adjuster to help your mind and work with your personality more effectively. You have to form this habit of doing this with intention, with real motivation. Ask you adjuster to help you, show you. Ask the spirit of truth - the mighty spiritual influence of your Creator Christ Michael - ask the Holy Spirit to work with your mind and spirit, ask the seraphic hosts and midwayers and be real, be sincere. Do this and consistently create connections through prayer, conversations, affirmation, worship, praise, meditation and stillness. Start to act when you feel led. Make a conscious effort to do the will of God. As you build this constant contact and interaction you will begin to see the influence. Your thought pattern. Your choices. Your decisions.
At some point a more intimate relationship emerges because since intention and potent motivations are recognized by spiritual gravity. You will be drawn to God. " I, if I be lifted up on earth and in your lives, will draw all men to myself and into the fellowship of my Father. " - that pull inwards, that transformation will begin to become more evident to you. Your immortal soul will grow. Your mind, your volition and will, will become more dominant and centered on the will of God. Your personality will be enriched and begin to unify your energy system. You will begin to become what you sincerely intend to be.
