Losing faith
“Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is. And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.”
1 John 3:2-3

2 - Reflect
The fatigue I was carrying was such that I could almost no longer sustain my faith. It was related to my projects: everything I craved seemed to be unreachable. It had reached a point where I was overwhelmed and frustrated with everything that happened. That made my connection with God the Father very thin, because I began to distrust His company, and whether He was really guiding my steps.
As Christians, we can often be confused with God when Our Father does not follow the plans we have as we would like. What we must understand is that He will not always be able to ingratiate us, many times He will put situations in our path that are not to our liking so that we can evolve and grow as Christians. In faith He will show us the solutions to solve those conflicts and to reach our desires. We must not give up or get angry with God just because things do not go the way we planned them. Maybe they will take us to better places than where we wanted to be or connect us with other brethren that we did not expect to meet. We will rejoice when we understand that Our Father will always want the best for His children, that God is the source of all inspiration and of all blessings in our paths.
