Take a Step Back

Take a Step Back

Hey Light,

Have you ever felt like you're going around in circles and can't find a way out, wondering why your efforts to move forward is not yielding the desired results?

Have you ever found yourself in the depths of lack of fulfillment, questioning the purpose of your endeavors?

Do you have that inner voice telling you that something is amiss.

It might be time to take a step back and rediscover the person God created you to be.

In my own journey, I realized that the key to fulfillment lies in reconnecting with the essence of who you are. Amidst the chaos of daily life, it's easy to forget the path that God has set for us.

I can totally understand, because I went through a similar journey in 2023. Despite knowing what I needed to do, the demands of life had caused me to overlook my true calling.

Dissatisfaction and emptiness crept in, leading me to step away from what I once enjoyed.

I disliked everything I was involved in, and the things that mattered to me the most became the things I hated doing, which eventually led me to disconnecting from social media for an extended period just to get my sanity back.

Retreating into my inner closet allowed me to rediscover that purpose and it brought back the peace that had eluded me.

Have you earnestly questioned the reasons behind your persistent struggle for progress, despite putting in your best efforts?

2023 was a year of uncertainties for me, where indecisions left me retracing my steps, taking a break from everything, and seeking solace in a deeper connection for at least 2 months.

After those 2 months, returning back didn't totally dissipate the sense of discontent. My regular job from 9 to 5 didn't give me the peace and happiness I was looking for.

In moments of solitude, I retreated into my inner closet, realizing that doing life alone isn't necessary when you have the guiding light of God. To truly be the light in your chosen field of endeavor, it's crucial to constantly reassess your direction, and always take a step back from the noise around you.

So, I took a moment to pause and reflect. I discovered that genuine fulfillment stems from aligning with your purpose and understanding what God intends for your life.

It's easy to be busy with numerous activities, achieving success, accumulating wealth, but is that truly what God envisions for you?

Those who carry the light are not just successful; they are solution-driven visionaries. They fix problems, live for others, and embody a purpose beyond personal gain.

To fulfill the calling that God has placed on you, it's essential to step back, seek divine guidance, understand your purpose, and watch as the universe aligns itself with your journey.

If you're grappling with a sense of dissatisfaction, consider this a gentle nudge to take a step back. Find that quiet space, seek divine guidance, and let it lead you back to the authentic self that God has intricately designed. It's in that alignment that true fulfillment awaits.
