You may be an adult, but this has nothing to do with the fact that you have definitely reached spiritual maturity. Spiritually mature individuals will never beg for recognition or acceptance. They no longer try to compare themselves to other people.
Many people mistakenly believe that being mature spiritually means having a deep knowledge of spiritual scriptures and completely uprooting and condemning the appearance of a Christian. But is it? After all, outward piety sometimes coexists with selfishness and pride.
It is not at all difficult to find out the level of awareness of a person, as well as his spiritual development. Especially if you understand exactly what you need to focus your attention on. If you also want to know if you can be classified as reaching spiritual maturity, you just need to look at the points below. Here are the signs of truly mature spiritually people.
So, the qualities of a spiritually mature person

- You began to accept people as they are with their characteristics, achievements, flaws, mistakes.
- You began to realize that your opinion may not agree with the opinion of others. Yes, from your point of view, you will always be right. But each of us can have our own truth, and this does not mean that the truth will be equal for absolutely everyone.
- You know you have to be able to let go. And you calmly let go of people, things, situations.
