Noun: the point or area on a bat, club, or racket at which it makes most effective contact with the ball.
Nowadays, it generally means finding that place where the most perfect or optimal results are achieved (Most often it refers to worldly success). We all live for that moment, don't we? That sweeter than sweet place where our plans come together, everything is wonderfully victorious and all is right with the world. But...
how often do we find the "Sweet Spot"? Not often...
Which makes me ponder why? Why is it so difficult for us to find that place of the most perfect results? Could one reason be that our idea of "most perfect" is crazy unrealistic? Do we expect it to be easy peasy...faultless...excessively gratifying...
Is anything worth achieving ever easy, perfect or even entirely enjoyable? Do we give up the search because it gets too difficult? Some of us do quit when we discover that finding the sweet spot may require years of blood, sweat and tears. There can be many, many stumbling blocks, painful sacrifices, flawed results, but...if we hang in...if we have faith...
when it is found...felt...achieved...
There is NOTHING, NADA, ZERO like it! No Sirree! However...
Worldly achievement is only one aspect. I don't think the above definitions are entirely complete or accurate. There is also, a sweet spot of the heart. Those things that are more personal, private, spiritual? This too, can take countless heart-breaking attempts to find that most perfect place. But...it is in our most divine moments, right in the middle of our anguish, that we discover God and His full intention for our life and...ultimately
when that "Sweet Spot" is found...felt...achieved...
There is nothing this world can offer that is more GLORIOUS!
