Development never stops.
Part of developing is doing self examination. Acknowledging that you did a great job in some areas. Acknowledging that you're not where you thought you were in others.
Many people perform well under pressure. They produce results in their life and in whatever field they are in. Sometimes, we confuse that our fire is burning high because we're able to produce, despite of.
Despite our emptiness.
Despite the dark feeling of depression.
Despite deep feelings of disappointment because yet again we've let time pass us by without accomplishing what we set out to do.
Despite trying to press forward after failed relationship after failed relationship.
Despite the "faking it til we make it", that we've turned "it" into a whole new identity.
An identity never designed by God.
Closer we are to the presence of God the more his light will highlight what needs to be tossed, what needs work, what needs healing, what to keep and what we need to feed ourselves (The Word) so that a pure fire not only burns bright but burns high, always.
