Navigating Limbo: Finding Momentum in Pause
Oct 13, 2021
My Dearest Warrior of Light,
As I write this, I'm reminded of those moments when life seems to hit a standstill. Have you ever felt like God suddenly pushed the pause button on your life's journey? One moment you're moving forward, and the next, you've crashed into an invisible wall, feeling stuck in limbo. It's as if the door has slammed shut, and you're left wondering where the window is that God promised to open.
This can be an incredibly frustrating and challenging place to be, especially when you're used to the momentum of life. It's a moment of pause that often comes with unexpected job loss, a loved one's diagnosis, or a sudden loss that shakes your world.
But here's the beautiful truth, my dear friend: even in this seemingly stagnant season, there are steps you can take, like planting seeds of hope in the soil of faith.
Let's explore a few resources together, aiming to build the momentum you need to move forward:

In fact, as Lynn's story shows, God's love for us remains unwavering no matter how stuck we might feel.
You are cherished, and God sees the beautiful story that will unfold from this unexpected detour. Keep holding on to hope, and believe that your momentum will return.
