It's 5:34 am and I am up contemplating my life. How did I get here? How do I progress? What lessons am I not learning? Hoping to receive some answers. I read my Bible, but I didn't find an answer there. I thought I should sit in silence, but it's too confusing. I'll listen to Acoustic Soul instead

The power of prayer ma dude. Personally when I get like that, the silence helps. I just close my eyes and let my thoughts speak. You're gonna be aiight baby boy.
These moments of in-depth introspection sneak up on us and move us to be honest with who we are, where we are, and where we want to be... And like blaq said, you will be aiight... continue to be affected by the highs and lows... amazing you will wake up one day and realize that you are exactly where you were not only meant to be, but want to be as well...
I really like your blog b/c somehow I always get you.
I'm in that place very VERY often and I believe that the "discomfort" that leads to the heavy and constant contemplation is a part of the growing pains of coming more into ourselves. Sometimes there are no immediate answers. What I have found though is when I'm there, my reception to him is heightened 10 fold. Sometimes it's not even about a given answer...it could just be about allowing yourself to be vulnerable TO him and leaning ON him in heart. When I'm that open...boy does it all unfold..my "everything" begins to flow through..
Keep expressing yourself. I love it!
this was a powerful read for me right now.
i hope you have found some answers since you posted this.
These moments of pause are very important. Use the silence to listen. Often that's when we are able to hear from God.
I am, Where You are...Most Definitely. Ive just relocated to Los Angeles, in a bitter/sweet chase towards my Ultimate Goals and UnParalleled Dreams. Ive left my comfort zone in Baltimore, Maryland, to be HERE. Its Scary and yet, So Xciting. I feel FREE, but Smothered in silent Chaos.
I believe that GOD is Challenging Me, for this is XACTLY What I asked of Him.
This is My destiny.
You are Traveling Yours.
Its Safe. I Promise. *BIG SMILE*
Having trouble understanding this "I read my Bible, but I didn't find an answer there" What parts did you read?
