A lot of people especially in this part of the world are deeply religious and as such religion is a sacred and controversial topic.
There are situations in life that test our faith as human beings and most of us, if not all fall at its mercy. This season according to the bible one man died for the sins of every human on earth–how selfless!
Back to the topic, sometimes in life we do things because we think it is the right and only thing we can do at the time. We don’t even look or reflect to be sure we are in the right path. Well, today as you read this–take a moment to reflect on your life, it may be that you’re not on the right path. I will share just three signs with you:
If you are not at peace with yourself
Peace is that deep down gut feeling that everything is all right and you are exactly where you should be in that moment. The absence of peace is also commonly referred to as being uneasy or “something just doesn’t feel right.” If you are not on your right path in some area of your life, even if you currently have everything you hoped for: the car, marriage, home, children, job – peace will be absent. Peace literally serves as an umpire to say, “Yes, this is safe or no, you are veering away from your true path.”
When peace is missing it’s designed to force you to stop and reevaluate what is going on in your life. Literally, you cannot rest until you figure it out. You will remain in a constant state of unrest until you address all areas that affect your path – relational, emotional, physical, mental, career, and spiritual.
When one door closes, another never opens
Have you ever started in a direction you thought you should go, but it seems like you can’t get a break? Things repeatedly fail. This is not the same as a little adversity or a few nos. If you are not on your right path, then doors closing in your face act as blessings and a warning sign that you are headed in the wrong direction.
Maybe the path you thought was right really is not the right one or the right timing. All those doors closing forces you to redirect to the right one if you are willing to be rerouted. Closed doors are simply a gentler way of being rerouted as opposed to allowing you to continue down a path that could possibly cause more harm than good.
No provision, no platter
Provision in this sense refers to anything you could possibly need to successfully continue on your path. This is not to say that everything is just handed to you when you are on your right path. But when you are on your right path, even if it comes down to the wire, a way is always made – provision always shows up even at the last possible second. When provision repeatedly isn’t there, this is an indicator that you should reevaluate and do something different.
Listen to your gut and pay attention to the signs around you. Paying attention early and often, can alert you to when you are on the wrong path in life.
I hope this article will help you meditate and start to reevaluate if there is something wrong.
Happy Easter!
