Restlessness

Maybe it's just me but I think at times when we are spiritually restless, it may be God's way of saying that He wants us in deeper obedience to Him in prayer and reading His Word. While I definitely believe that God has big dreams and plans for us, I do think that at times this restlessness that we feel isn't about us but is about our worship. As long as we keep the focus on Him and not ourselves, then the dreams and plans kind of take care of themselves. But if we're in a big hurry to discover ourselves (we should find redemption and validation through God and not through other things & people) and the dreams God has for us (which I believe ultimately start with worship of Him), then we may simply miss the point of our existence in the first place.
