Today I walked out of work feeling so tired. So drained in my mind. So many things are ongoing in my subconscious mind. So much to answer, so much to handle, different people at work. In the middle of the chaos, I am learning that strength is not about having it all together. It is about showing up, even when your mind feels tired.
It is about choosing purpose over giving up.
I asked the Lord what I should do. Am I in the right place? More responsibilities are coming to me. But there is a form of peace within me. I just know I am in the right place. A quiet assurance.A deep knowing.Not because the journey is easy,
But because I know I am exactly where I am meant to be in this season.
I always wanted to improve the healthcare system. But I did not realise it comes with so much weight and responsibilities. I sincerely am not sure what I am doing, but I told myself I will just trust the process. As I was writing this note, this verse came to me, Proverbs chapter 16:3: ”Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established”. (NIV).
Perhaps sometimes the answer is not having everything figured out.
Perhaps it is simply continuing to surrender the work, the calling, and the journey to God — one step at a time.
I decided to surrender this work unto God.
He knows best.
And He knows exactly where He is leading me.
There are moments I do not fully understand the journey,
the responsibilities,
or even the process itself.
But I am learning that faith is not about having every answer.
It is about trusting the One who already sees the bigger picture.
So today, my prayer became simple:
“Lord, use me for Your Kingdom.”
Use my work.
Use my journey.
Use even the difficult seasons for a greater purpose beyond myself.
And perhaps that is where true peace comes from —
not in controlling everything,
but in placing everything into His hands.
As I was just concluding this note, I was moved to say thank you, Lord.Thank you for everything.Thank you for guiding me through this season.”
My Spirit was just moved to sing this song aloud,” Thank you, Lord, for your love and increased grace in my life. I would continue saying thank you, Lord. All I can say is thank you, Lord.’

Thank you for loving me, My God.-R.J.JOHN
