At a standstill? Embrace it

Seasons of stagnancy come to us all: in our work, in our relationships, in our personal goals, and in our spiritual lives.

We can all be prone to feeling apathy, dissatisfaction, and a sense of standstill. Can you remember a time when you felt stuck in a rut?

We feel the frustration with the process not tending to progress, and with ourselves for not being able to get going and motivated to change old patterns for healthier, or holier ones. Despite all attempts at new routines, despite renewed vigour or activism, there remains little measure of success, progress, or gain in our lives.
