Going to church, reading the bible, listening to Christian music will not advance your spiritual life. These activities may give you more understanding but until you are ready to lay down your life and take up your cross this leads nowhere.
What I am talking about is the sacrifice of self to advance the cause of Jesus Christ in the world. There is a destiny that God had for each of us that only we can personally discover. We can discover it only by detaching from the world and making ourselves available for the Holy Spirit. By detaching from the world--now you have time--the commodity that most Christians are not willing to give.
Jesus said, "Self-help is not help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, to finding yourself, your true self. (Matthew 16:25)
"God has planted eternity in the human heart." (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
"Anyone who lets himself be distracted from the work I plan for him is not fit for the Kingdom of God." (Luke 9:62)
"The most important thing is that I complete my mission, the work that the Lord Jesus gave me." (Acts 20:24)
"We have been sent to speak for Christ." (2 Corinthians 5:20)
"We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus, to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." (Ephesians 2:10)

In every new season, you must embrace change. Sometimes, you get in such a rut and routine in where you are going and what you are doing, that you lose the ability to adapt and change in the midst of changing situations. When you encounter roadblocks or detours, you don't always perceive that the Lord might be in your midst, bringing change to your direction.
You'll be driving in a new way in days ahead. You'll be moving down a stretch you've never moved down before, so watch the Holy Spirit as He leads you (Galatians 5:25). Pay attention to the sound that is in your atmosphere -- you will hear the sound of the wind in the mulberry trees (2 Samuel 5:24), signifying the change and direction you are to take.
You may not know exactly where you're going, but you do know Jesus, and He promises that that is enough. Press forward into your CALLING in Christ (Ephesians 4:1)! Going backward is not an option -- glory doesn't go backward. You are free, beloved! It's time to soar. "If the Son sets you free, you are free indeed" (John 8:36)
