No matter how hard things have been, giving up is not a viable option. 

Return to what God called you to be. Things might have been tougher than usual, but God will always make a way.

Sometimes, it’s hard to continue with a task when you don’t see the desired results. Despite that, return to what God called you to do. No amount of support can make up for the times when you went at it when everything was backed up against you. 

Nevertheless, return to how God ordained your life. Overworking and exerting extreme pressure to force a situation can be emotionally, physically, and spiritually draining. It might not be the time for what you want to accomplish.

“I have seen servants on horses, while princes walk on the ground like servants”. Ecclesiastes 10:7 NKJV

The attention you don’t get does not indicate the value of your contribution. Return to what God calls you to do without the attention of the world. It doesn’t matter if you sold your beats to a producer who never gave you credit, and the song became one of their biggest hits. Continue to nurture the sound that makes you feel alive. You will attain your destiny by putting in the effort while you allow God to do His work in you. 

If you are a discouraged writer, return to writing like you did before your confidence was crushed. Writing consistently is the biggest accomplishment in itself, and it’s not about the number of people who get to read your work, even though that’s great for your confidence. The most prolific writers became well-known after their death or in their senior years. 

Achievements and awards are not the measure of your success. Return to the place of unspeakable joy, where there are no awards attached to your performance. Enjoying the process is your reward.

“The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.” Psalm 34:18 NKJV

If you are generally feeling lost in life, return to your first true love. God is near to those who are brokenhearted. No one can heal you better than God, especially when it comes to matters affecting the condition of your soul and life.

Return to loving people just as God continues to love you with all your flaws. Do good, even if no one sees it. The love of God is relentless; return to the love that never dies. 

“And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,  knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.” Colossians 3:23-24 NKJV

The work is done as if it were done for God and performed with love. It doesn’t matter if those you work for are kind to you or not, for your reward comes from God and not from mankind. 

Criticism is always around us. It might hurt sometimes, but it fuels growth. Learning and improvements are seen in those who are constantly working and sharing their contributions with others. 

We are called to serve one another; those who can encourage others should do so with joy. Life is more meaningful when you consider others as much as you think of yourself. Pride comes when you put yourself first at all times. 

Almost everyone can see that we lost something over the past decades. The love that once surrounded us disappeared or changed. God told us that the love of many will grow cold. 

“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12 NKJV

Disorder prevails when people exist against God’s standard. As rebellion increases on earth, we walk out of order to what God called us to be. The coldness leaves when people remember who God is in their own lives. 

When the world around you becomes unrecognisable, remember to return to God’s word.

Be unaffected by what happens around you, even if it’s hard to move past it. God has a way of reminding us that if we rely on others more than we depend on Him, we will get hurt. 

Avoid the corruption of the world that makes your soul dull. The pleasures of the world trick people into believing that what they can have here on earth is worthwhile. Only eternal life is valuable, and we get it through Christ Jesus. 

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23 KJV

Don’t betray yourself by following the wrong path. Remain on the righteous path that God spoke over your life before you were even formed in your mother’s womb. Imagine how perfect God’s words are for every one of us. We forgot once we got into this world. But God reminds us from time to time to return to how He ordained us to be. 

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV

God’s word is in all of us. We must seek God’s plans for our lives. The big picture is hidden within the canvas. It is our duty to find out what God wants us to accomplish in this life. 

Return to the beginning.

Return to the Word.

Return to everlasting.

Forever and ever is the eternal savior.

Forever is a long time; choose wisely.

Time stands still when God speaks.

Time stands still for you in awe.

The glory comes when God is around.

The glory comes when God is honored. 

We exist for God’s glory.

To love God is to love the one we see,

for they are made in God’s very own image.

We exist for God’s kingdom day. 

To love God is to love without evidence,

for blessed are those who return without proof.
