Developing Christian VirtuesSample

Spiritual Blindness

Peter warns about spiritual blindness that occurs when Christians do not grow in the mentioned virtues. This blindness prevents them from seeing God's transforming work in their lives and makes them spiritually stagnant. He describes this condition as spiritual myopia, where people see only what is near and forget the cleansing of their sins. This blindness can lead to spiritual stagnation and hinder growth in faith. We must be aware of our need to continue growing and allow God's light to illuminate the dark areas of our lives, avoiding the trap of spiritual blindness.

Reflection Question: Are there areas in my life where I am spiritually blind? How can I seek God's light to see them clearly?
