An Unconventional Decision

We must always remember that we are on the path to eternal enlightenment. Discover the verses in the following article that will help you regain complete happiness.

"However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe in Him for eternal life." 1 Timothy 1:16

Often, we perceive luck as something external to us, something that happens without our intervention. As if it were a higher entity that selects some to bless and others to overlook.

However, it is crucial to understand that the path we carve in life is determined by our decisions and our connection with divine blessings. Luck has no influence on how we face our problems, our insecurities, or how we strengthen ourselves against obstacles.

Mental peace and the understanding that the Lord's blessings accompany us at all times are key. We recognize them in moments of joy and value them, but we also learn to temper sadness, melancholy, and losses.

"But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind." James 1:6

We cannot ignore the existence of favorable or unfavorable events that may seem the result of chance or coincidence, but in reality, they are part of the plan drawn by our Heavenly Father. Often, these events escape our understanding and are beyond our control.

There are situations in life that can only be explained through faith and spirituality. It is in these crucial moments, when someone's life changes radically, that divine intervention becomes evident, and there are no doubts about its nature.

While there are coincidences where some people seem luckier than others, in the realm of everyday life, things happen differently.

"...For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps: 'Who committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth'; who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously." 1 Peter 2:21-23

Have you noticed how people who radiate peace and love, who are positive, joyful, and face life with a smile are the ones who impact you the most? Those people who closely follow the Lord, who maintain a constant dialogue with Him through prayer, have a deeper vision of reality.

If you pay attention while walking, you'll notice that you don't focus on the ground you step on, its solidity, and the support it provides with each step. You take it for granted, knowing it will always be there, but you don't stop to appreciate the richness it holds. Similarly, we take many things in our life for granted, simply assuming they will always be present. However, the question we should ask ourselves is: who has always been there for us?

Loving becomes difficult when we feel empty. Modern life, so accelerated, traps us and prevents us from appreciating the essential things that give meaning to our existence, especially in our life with God.

If you feel that something is not right, if you do not experience fullness, you may be in a period of distancing from your path of faith and the Holy Spirit. It's time to reconnect with your roots, those that provide strength and essence to your life with Jesus.

"He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son." 1 John 5:10

Resume prayer, return to silence, and immerse yourself in reading the Bible. Try to listen and strive to approach the glory of the Father. Open your heart to blessings instead of filling yourself with loud and mostly empty talks.

If acting according to the path of faith sustains and strengthens you, reconnect with that energy from which you have distanced yourself. Your feelings will gradually emerge, and you will regain the sense of your life. Generate your own energy and move in the direction the Lord has designed for you. Remember that the Savior is your witness and companion on this journey.

Let's remember that beyond luck, it's our faith and connection with God that creates our destiny. Through our decisions, our inner peace, and our surrender to divine blessings, we can experience a full and meaningful life. May the path we carve be marked by faith, hope, and trust in the loving guidance of the Lord. May divine peace and grace always accompany us!
