My Secret Weapon to Gain Clarity
The Best Way to Find Clarity and Direction
Last week, we talked about the different seasons in life. You can read more about that here.
For the past few years, I have been in what I like to call the “fog” season of life. I kind of knew what God wanted me to do, but I wasn’t sure what that was going to look like or even how to get there. So here is what I did to gain clarity…
I started acting & moving forward on what i thought god was asking me to do.
It was messy, I encountered many hurdles and even thought about quitting several times, but then I realized what was helping me gain clarity.
Hindsight is more powerful than forward looking.
As I was acting and moving forward without clarity, I was able to take a pause, look back on what I had been doing and evaluate. Sometimes, we see ourselves more clearly when we look back.
I could look back, see mistakes I had made and how I needed to change things as I moved forward…and the beautiful thing about doing this with God is that he doesn’t need us to feel shame over our mistakes or be afraid of what’s ahead. We just have to commit to keep moving forward and chasing what God is asking of us.
