Identity in Hiatus

There are times in life when one needs to take a break, evaluate, reassess and determine ones next step in life.  There are times in life when in one’s assessment it is easy to realise that you’ve taken the focus off the prize. However identifying the lack of focus and redirecting that focus is another matter altogether. Without vision people perish. Without vision life appears hopeless, and other options become more viable. What vision can one have that is unfaltering and consistent?  What vision can one rely on to ensure that one will never perish?  This topic’s controversial but it’s Jesus Christ. Not academia, not body image, not finances, social status, entertainment, career, etc., Jesus.  Nothing else but Jesus can guarantee your purposeful existence in life. It is when we focus on Jesus that our insecurity diminishes, our fears soften, and our daily focus becomes clearer. It is in this realignment/refocusing we need to realise that healthy input (spending time with God, reading His Word, fellowshipping, etc.) is the only way to produce a healthy output. This is my prayer - God help me, that I may desire You more than anything else, and refocus my life focusing on You.
