Embracing Stillness: A Journey to Joy and Freedom
In the rhythmic cadence of life, there emerges a question that resonates deeply with the ebb and flow of our journeys: How might surrendering to God's guidance to be still bring more joy and freedom to your path? As I reflect upon this profound inquiry, my own narrative intertwines with the transformative power of embracing stillness—a journey marked by vulnerability, depleted altruism, patient waiting, and the unwavering faith that binds it all together.
The Struggle of Depleted Altruism and the Call to Stillness
In the hustle and bustle of pouring out, I found myself grappling with the depletion of my spirit, yearning for more in so many areas of my life. It was in the midst of this struggle that the call to be still gained clarity—a divine whisper inviting me to surrender my burdens, embrace vulnerability, and find solace in the quiet moments of communion with God.
Patient Waiting and the Art of Surrender
During three years of patient waiting for my second child, the concept of surrender took on a new depth. The stillness required in waiting became an invitation to trust in divine timing and relinquish my need for control. It was in the quiet spaces between the waiting that I found an unexpected sense of freedom—a freedom born out of surrendering my own timeline to the hands of a higher plan.
Weaving Stillness into Personal Transformation
Embracing God's guidance to be still is not a passive act but a dynamic journey toward personal transformation. It is in the surrendering of our struggles, ambitions, and timelines that we unlock the door to profound joy and freedom. Stillness becomes a sanctuary where we find strength in vulnerability, patience in waiting, and the courage to step into our true identity.
