Toward an Authentic Future

Image
  The question that lingers through all the noise of our time is this: what does it mean to be authentic in a world built to reward performance, imitation, and speed? To imagine a future where authenticity thrives is not simply an exercise in optimism; it is a survival instinct for the human spirit. If we do not dare to create such a vision, the machinery of distraction and commodification will continue to shape us into copies of copies, until we forget there was ever such a thing as an original voice, an unedited life, a genuine presence. Authenticity begins with the simplest yet hardest of acts: telling the truth about who we are. Not the curated truth, not the glossy highlight reel, not the version that algorithms will reward with clicks and likes, but the messy, contradictory, luminous truth. To move toward an authentic future means daring to live in a way that is untranslatable into metrics. It means finding value in the depth of connection rather than in its visibility. I...

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.
