I Quit

I am writing this to say:

I quit trying to force open eyes that the god of this age has blinded. I quit straining my voice to be heard over the deafening noise of lies fed by leaders, media, and systems designed to keep souls asleep. My heart is heavy, my ears are tired, and I can no longer carry the weight of a world that refuses to wake up.

I suppose I’m in good company, because this is the ancient cry of the prophet.

You are not failing God by feeling exhausted. Elijah, after calling down fire from heaven and seeing the greatest revival of his time, ran into the wilderness when threatened by one woman. He sat under a broom tree and prayed to die, saying, “It is enough! Now, Lord, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers” (1 Kings 19:4).

Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, wanted to quit because his message was mocked daily. He said, “I will not mention Him or speak any more in His name,” yet the Word was like a fire shut up in his bones (Jeremiah 20:9). Even Moses and Jonah asked God to take their lives when the burden of the people became too great.

Their weariness was not a lack of faith; it was the natural response of a conscious soul living in an unconscious world.

Let me get straight to the point. I really don’t feel like I can relate to anyone in this world any longer. There are no conversations that do not somehow lead to the blindness of those who refuse to see that the TRUTH is a person, not some relative knowledge base.

Even when attempting to communicate with “Christians,” I find such a dullness of conscience and ignorance of the PERSON of Christ, not the religion, that I feel completely isolated.

Essentially, I am roundly ignored wherever I go and in whatever work I do.

So, I QUIT.

When I say “I quit,” I do not mean I am abandoning Jesus, the Creator and Absolute Truth. I am quitting the striving that belongs only to Him.

1. I Quit Trying to Be the Holy Spirit: I cannot convince, convict, or convert. That is the job of the Creator who formed every heart. I release the responsibility for their response.

2. I Quit Arguing with Darkness: You cannot argue someone out of a lie they didn’t think themselves into. I will no longer waste my breath debating reality with those committed to the illusion.

3. I Quit Carrying the Burden Alone: The weight of the world was never mine to hold. Jesus said, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). I am finally accepting that invitation.

To “quit” in this sense is actually an act of deep trust. It is admitting that He alone has all knowledge and truth within Himself. If He is the Absolute, then He is capable of sustaining His own creation without my anxiety.

• My new role is not to fix, but to abide.

• My new strategy is not to persuade, but to pray.

• My new goal is not success, but faithfulness.

If you too are weary of striving and your heart is breaking under the weight of a sleeping world,

You have delivered your soul. You have spoken the truth. The results are not yours to manufacture.

Stop trying to wake the dead with your own strength. Only the Creator can breathe life into dry bones. Rest in Him. Let the silence of your “quitting” become the space where He speaks.
