The Alchemy of the Void - A Journal of the Unformed

March 26. It’s early, or maybe it’s far too late for the sleep that never quite came to shelter me under its wing, and the air in the room feels heavy, saturated with that peculiar scent of cold linden tea and a thin layer of dust settling on the edges of unspoken words. Eh, how strange it is, this state of the shattered mirror , the one where until yesterday you saw not just your own face, but the entire world—ordered, logical, seemingly eternal—and now... now there are only shards. You know how it is; sometimes it feels like if you just don’t move, if you hold your breath long enough, time might take pity and rewind the tape to the moment before everything fell into its constituent parts? But it doesn’t. It just leaves you there, in the middle of the room, with an empty chair facing you and that deafening silence , which isn't just an absence of sound, but the presence of something heavy, almost palpable, pressing you into the floor. A breakup isn’t just an event; it is an alche...

Humility is an essential virtue

 As human beings, we often have our own plans and desires that we want to achieve. We set goals, make plans, and work towards them with determination. However, as we journey through life, we quickly realize that things don't always go as we had planned or hoped. It's in these moments that we need to remind ourselves of the powerful #prayer, "Lord, Your Will be done."
The prayer of "Lord, Your #Will be done" is a powerful reminder that we are not in #control of everything that happens in our lives. We need to have the humility to recognize that our plans and desires may not always be in line with God's plan for us. It requires trust in God's plan and the #calmness to #surrender our will to His.
#Humility is an essential virtue in the #Christian #faith. It means recognizing that we are not the center of the universe and that our plans may not always be the best ones. By praying, "Lord, Your Will be done," we acknowledge that God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:9). We submit ourselves to God's plan and seek His guidance, trusting that He knows what is best for us.
Trust is another important #virtue that we need to cultivate in our Christian walk. Trusting in God's plan can be #challenging, especially when things don't go the way we had hoped. We may be tempted to doubt God's #goodness and question His plan. However, by praying, "Lord, Your Will be done," we express our #trust in God's sovereignty and His #love for us. We believe that #God is in control, and He will work all things together for our good (Romans 8:28).
Finally, the prayer of "Lord, Your Will be done" brings #calmness to our #souls. When we surrender our plans to God, we #letgo of the need to control everything. We no longer have to worry about the future or obsess over our goals. Instead, we can rest in the #assurance that God is in control, and He will lead us where we need to go. This gives us a sense of #peace and calmness, even in the midst of difficult circumstances.
