Understanding Our Spiritual Desires

To truly know ourselves, we must first understand our spiritual desires, as they form the core of our identity. When we prioritize mere willpower, we condition ourselves to rely on fleeting words and transient things. However, a deep understanding of our purpose in God, rooted in discerning our true desires, allows us to connect with others in a meaningful way. Without this, we risk becoming like two ships passing in the night—close, yet never truly meeting.

Our souls are designed to seek God. Without finding God, we remain restless and anxious. But when we discover God, we uncover our purpose. Once our purpose is clear, every person we encounter becomes part of a purposeful journey. This alignment ensures that our desires are neither thwarted nor frustrated. In a world often swayed by idolatry, true spiritual desire remains steadfast, unhindered by external conflicts. By trusting in the living God rather than fleeting idols, we anchor ourselves in a purpose that endures, even within an idolatrous culture
