5-Minute Freewrite: What State Are We In?

The state we are in tells a lot of our heart's condition. The same actions driven by different state may look the same on the outside but the effects of it will tell.

For example, one of the most frequent comparisons I use is the state of loneliness versus being alone. It's solitude time but one is enjoying it while the other maybe dreading it. That's because the state of our hearts are different. Sometomes, it can be changed with a deliberate conscious effort of the shift of perspectives. Sometimes, it may require something more than that, like a revelation or a breakthrough in the mind.

At times, we are not aware of the state of our heart because it may be very vague and subtle. Maybe we are already used to a certain attitude towards life that we feel that it is the norm of life. Sometimes, we only learn about the state of our heart after it is expressed through some actions. After that, it may sit us down to actually think through.

The busyness and hectic lifestyle that we have now may cloud us from the state of our hearts. We may have accustomed with different masks for different people in different situations. Hence, it may take a lot of courage just for us to go back to know the state of what we really are.

I was watching a drama that would show us the true state of our heart, who we really are what we are motivated by. It sounds like a good deal but how many of us would dare to take up such a challenge? I'm not sure to what extent I can go too, myself.

Whatever state we are in, we can only tackle it when we come clean with ourselves and God. No one can fix a problem if we think there isn't a problem. I'm glad that my God comes for me to reveal the state of my heart, not because He needs to know about it, but to reveal to me to show me so He can heal and restore.

I checked out her post to really get what it is before I jumped on the bandwagon. Basically, there is no right or wrong, just let the mind and fingers do their work, to find our creative self and let it come out of us.
