Your Question:
Can I really go back to work after all this?
Answer:
I can relate to your question. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with the idea of returning to their old ways. My wife Susan and I have been married for 19 years, and I've learned that it's easy to get comfortable and complacent. But the truth is, once you've made progress, it's not always easy to keep moving forward. I've had to remind myself of this many times, especially when it comes to my own spiritual growth. As a self-employed pastor, I've had to be intentional about my work habits and priorities. But even with the best of intentions, it's easy to get sidetracked. I've had to remind myself that I'm not just working for myself, but for the kingdom of God. I'm an ambassador of Christ, and that changes everything. It's not about whether or not I feel like working, but about being faithful to my calling. I think that's what's at the heart of your question. Are you feeling stuck or uncertain about going back to work? I would encourage you to remember that you can't undo your past, but you can learn from it. Take advantage of the experiences and lessons you've gained, but don't get stuck there. You have a future to face, and it's full of possibilities. Don't let fear or complacency hold you back. You've made progress, now keep moving forward.
