Losing that passion
Well hello there fabulous people- You're probably here because you are going through a similar dip or have in the past. High five to being completely human and through that not always being on top form.
This past year, I have said yes to more things than I ever had before that. For the 18 years previously I felt too shy, incapable, unconfident and most of all lacking trust in gods plan for me. So when I had a year out for god I wanted that to change.
Sure enough I was recklessly saying yes to things which were so unnatural and caused me discomfort. Through these things, god blessed me so much and I was on fire. I have no regrets looking back and I have loved exploring that part of my personality for the lord.
The phrase "The skys your limit" seemed so silly, as God gave me the freedom to have no limits. The passion and drive I had over these 6 months were wonderful and such a blessing.
However over the past month or so, I seemed to have hit a brick wall with that. I'm far more reluctant to say yes again and all that anxiety and fear has cropped back into my body.
When this first happened I was very confused as I thought I had fallen out of love of god and didn't understand how this could have happened. Then after some thought and A LOT of prayer, god revealed to me that we all go through different seasons.
This past year has been amazing and my passion has been so present and at the forefront, but it's not natural or sustainable if our faith is driven through the emotions we feel.
God is showing me so many different things about him still, just in such a different way. It's really showed me how god is always present- whether it's the good times or bad.
I really want to encourage you that if you feel your passion dying or slipping, then god could just be calling you into a different season. Talk it out with God and let him reveal himself to you.
It's a weird stage I'm at, but I'm so thankful I have a caring and loving father to guide me through this.
Take care and don't beat yourself up too much- You're precious!
