Throughout my life, I have been able to rely on three Scriptures that get me thinking in the right direction, regardless of the problems or issues I may be facing:
1 Corinthians 10:13
- I will not be given more than I can bear.
1 Corinthians 10:13 - There is always a way out.
Colossians 3:1-2 - Set my mind and heart on things above.
Romans 5:10 - When I was God’s enemy, he reached out to me.
I’ve called them stepping stones and likened them to a stone path that leads me out of trouble. No trouble or circumstance has yet to rock this steady path. For this, I am quite grateful.
During the retreat, I started thinking - I have a path out, but can a similar path be found that leads up?
I want to explore the deeper waters of Christianity, but which Scriptures will always push me back out when I become more worldly? Hmmm. Something worth investigating…

If I could, what does, “but which Scriptures will always push me back out when I become more worldly?” mean? I really don’t understand. From just the wording in your post I have an idea of what direction you might consider, but I could be off base, pending your statement.
