Let's compare spiritual progress to aircraft in a simple analogy. In aircraft, one must check the relative flight speed indicator often to assure safe and stable flight. If the aircraft reaches below indicated safety limits, it is possible for the plane to simply fall out of the sky if sufficient thrust or lift is not produced. In other words, if we are not moving forward we fall.
Our spiritual progress is no different. We my analyze often our relative flight speed indicator with regular priesthood interviews, honest prayer, and review of objectives and progress (on paper). If our spiritual progress reaches low emergency speeds due to our disobedience, pride, or indifference we will not produce enough spirituality (thrust and lift) to stay in flight, and we will inevitably fall.
