I Am Walking in Circles

     I am walking in circles if I am not walking towards God. There was a period of time in my life, where I was just in a routine of eating, sleeping and working. I would watch videos, play pc games and read different kinds of news articles. I felt like I was wandering around aimlessly through life without a purpose and a direction. It felt like I was just walking in circles and doing the same things over and over again. My life felt like it had no meaning. I could feel a distance between me and God. I use to read his word and pray to him more often but I was not doing this and I could not tell you why. I realized that if I am not walking towards God, I am aimlessly walking around in a circle.
     Somehow I let the doing other things in my life get in the way of my relationship to God. None of the other things that I was doing was getting me closer to God. They were actually taking up my time and the time I needed to use to draw near to him. This had taught me a good lesson, a life without God is meaningless. It makes you feel lost and empty inside. If I was not walking towards God, I was not going anywhere but in circles. I needed God in my life more than I needed to do other things that took my time away from him. God is my purpose and my life.
     I am not saying that you cannot do other things in your life but make sure you are not leaving out God in your life. Make time for him. If you are not making time for God, you will definitely feel that there is something missing in your life. God gives you a purpose in life and he gives you meaning and makes you feel that you have a direction to walk in. Without God in our life, we are just walking in circles.
     I thank God that this time in my life without him was a short one. I could never live without him for a long time. I would have a depression that would not end. I need his light and love. I could never live my life just walking around in circles, I must have a direction to go in and that direction is towards God.
