Between the endless office deadlines, confusing relationship drama, and the carefully curated highlight reels on Instagram, it is easy to feel small and lonely. We often feel like we are just drifting through life, disconnected from any real purpose, chasing a peace that feels light-years away.
Have you ever wondered why God feels so distant when we need Him most? The truth is, we are looking for Him in the wrong places, or perhaps with the wrong mindset. Krishna tells us that He is never actually away from those who see Him in everything. This single shift in perspective can end your anxiety and give you the company you have been craving all along.
