I’ve noticed whenever Christians get close to their breakthrough or right before their prayers are about to be answered, there is an increase in spiritual warfare, distractions & chaos in their lives. Please remind yourself that God has your back, keep praying & stay focused.
I’ve noticed that when someone’s sitting in that in between space where they’re emotionally aware that what they wanted from a person is now either out of reach, or no longer possible in the way they hoped, it triggers a deep sadness. But for a lot of people, sadness is unbearable. So instead of sitting in it, they start to yearn. Because yearning, even though it’s also painful, gives the illusion of possibility. It lets them pretend there’s still something left to reach for, that something can still be done, that maybe it’s not over. Yearning keeps a door open. It gives the illusion that you still have a say, or a shot, even if that’s no longer the reality.
