Many times we get to the point where we think we know what we are doing or what we want to do, but deep down we still feel confused about what exactly we want to do. Especially for those of us that have a lot, we can do, and we almost love everything we can do, because our individuality makes us adhere passion to anything we get involved in except of course it’s something we don’t like at all.
Truth is, I have been here and I am here at the moment. I know many people will read in amazement thinking to themselves, “I thought Ala always had it figured out? I thought she always had it all together”? My dear reader, and friends, it’s not like that all the time o. There are many times where I’ve known what I want, but there are also times when my wanting or knowing hasn’t found total rest in me to push hard, this makes me take a pause seeking clarity and in turn, make me feel stagnant. I hate being in the wait for every reason you can think of. But, it’s a necessary process.
Imagine going on with life as you want it and not taking a pause to weigh if that is what or what you should or shouldn’t be doing at that point? It’s going to be a huge disaster and a total waste of time at some point. And I believe that it’s better to take time and do the right thing rightly than rush and do the right thing wrongly or at the wrong time. The truth is there is time for everything.
I usually sit down and ask myself questions about every area of my life which I give honest answers to. Especially when I am raging with lots of ideas and there are so many things I wish to achieve within a particular period. I know many believers will say in their hearts that I’m not spiritual enough because I am confused, but I beg to differ.
I’ve gotten to understand that everything embedded in me is for a reason and it all has its time of manifestation and I am not negligent of the fact that the world is so loud and it can also inspire a lot of things I might think is true for me at a particular point in time, so, rather than I make a mistake and make moves I’m not sure of, I will sit for a while off the radar and get clarity, by having frank talk sessions with me and the Holy Spirit till I get my answer.
There’s no need to be in a hurry with you. The most important thing is getting it right. Our society has made us believe that we must always be on the move and never wait. That’s not totally true. There are seasons and every seed planted has its season of waiting and its season of harvest. Know when it’s your waiting season and use it appropriately, it could be a capacity building moment for the harvest that is yet to come.
The time of confusion could be a time to find the true you, so it’s okay to be confused once in a while. Be true to you, be true to your time, discover you and give the best of you to the world unapologetically.
