When the System Breaks You: Finding Purpose in Pain
By Abraham of London · · 5 min readResilience
There are hits you can’t out-think. Papers served. Doors closed. Friends silent.
You don’t need slogans—you need scaffolding.
Three Rooms to Walk Through
- Grief. Name what you lost. Don’t minimize it. Lament is holy.
- Grit. Build a daily rule: sleep, Scripture, sweat, sunlight, support. Repeat for 30 days.
- Grace. Forgive wisely. Keep your heart soft and your boundaries firm.
Anchors That Held Me
- Scripture before screen. First voice wins the day.
- Document, don’t detonate. Write facts; let time vindicate.
- Serve someone. Purpose suffocates despair.
- Speak life. Over your child, your case, your future.
You’re not broken beyond use. You’re being reforged.
If you need language to pray when words won’t come, reach out. I’ll share a short liturgy I wrote for hard mornings.
