“You may forget that you are at every moment totally dependent on God.”

C. S. Lewis

Simplified Meaning:

It's easy to get caught up in our daily lives and forget that we don’t control everything. Think about when you wake up each day, breathe, or eat – these are essential parts of being alive that you often might not think about where they come from. The quote reminds us that there’s a higher power – which many call God – that makes all of this possible. Just like a plant needs the sun, water, and soil to grow, we need something beyond ourselves to really live and thrive. If you remember this, it can bring humility and gratitude into your life. For example, when faced with a challenge, instead of feeling alone or overwhelmed, you can rely on faith and find comfort knowing you’re supported by something greater than yourself. This perspective can help you stay grounded and appreciative of the simple, yet essential, aspects of life.
