Are People Experiencing a Crisis of Faith—and Is It Warranted?
Faith has long been a source of comfort, guidance, and purpose. For many, it provides hope in the face of chaos and meaning in times of struggle. But in today’s world, where suffering is rampant, and uncertainty seems to be the only certainty, more and more people are questioning the very foundations of their beliefs.
I've always had reservations about religion and believing in something intangible. While I receive dreams, messages through my writing, and moments of clarity, I still question if there's something beyond ourselves.
And the truth is—we may never truly know.
The Role of Faith in a Broken World
We live in a time where the world feels like it’s unraveling. The systems we trusted are crumbling, and the people we look to for guidance often fail us. In this reality, faith—whether in God, the Universe, or another higher power—becomes a lifeline.
It’s not hard to see why people hold on to these beliefs. Life is unpredictable, and having something to believe in offers stability. It provides hope, the idea that there’s a greater plan at work, even when we can’t see it.
But for some, that belief no longer holds weight.
💜 Side Note: I've come to realize that my "gifts"—the dreams, insights, and intuitive messages—are simply my own energy speaking to me. They guide me to be better for myself and encourage others to do the same. It’s about energy, not an external force controlling my path.
Stepping Away from Traditional Beliefs
I recognize that many believe in energies beyond this physical realm, and as mentioned, it's for good reason—especially during these unprecedented times. Faith, in all its forms, has provided comfort, guidance, and a sense of hope for countless people.
For me, however, I’ve come to terms with the fact that this belief system no longer works for me. As I grow and evolve, so do my core beliefs, mindset, and energy—and that's okay.
I will always take what resonates from what I learn as I continue to engage and live my life because that is what I feel is needed to replenish me and push me forward.
Honoring Different Perspectives
I’m happy that so many of you have belief systems that serve you in this phase of your life. However, please remember one thing: not every individual believes the same, and that's okay. We are multifaceted humans, after all.
We don’t have to agree on everything to respect each other’s journeys.
Thanks for reading and taking the time to be open-minded.
