It’s not just a question—it’s a mirror. “Are you actually taking God serious?” challenges you to pause and reflect on whether yout faith is lived out authentically or merely spoken. It cuts through routine and asks: Is your devotion more than words? Does it shape your choices, your values, your daily actions? This phrase is a wake-up call, a reminder that reverence isn’t passive—it’s active, intentional, and transformative.

I want to have a vulnerable and honest conversation. I’ve been away for a while, and that time has been spent recognizing just how important it is to pause, breathe, and reconnect with God. I can’t pour into others when I’m running on empty.

Stepping back reminded me that God is the true source of strength, peace, and clarity. No matter how much I try to push through on my own, I’m never truly sustained unless I go back to Him. It’s in His presence that I find rest, realignment, and the grace I need to keep moving. So this season has been about learning to return to the source—not just once, but continuously—so that I’m pouring from overflow, not exhaustion.

For those who want to read about Joseph, you can start reading from Genesis 37.
