“You’ll Get Through It”… But I Needed You to Stay
Sometimes the deepest hurt is not what they did… but how lightly they hold your pain.When you open your heart and they hand it back with indifference, it teaches you something powerful: not everyone is meant to carry your vulnerability. Guard it with wisdom, not silence. Feel deeply—but choose carefully who gets to witness those feelings. Verse:“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” — Bible, Galatians 6:2 Story:I remember the moment clearly.It wasn’t loud. It wasn’t dramatic. It was quiet… almost dismissible if you weren’t paying attention. I finally spoke up.“I’m hurt,” I said, hoping—maybe even expecting—a pause, a softening, something human. But instead, I got a shrug wrapped in words:“You’ll get through it.” And just like that… something shifted. Not because the problem was too big.But because my feelings were made too small. It wasn’t comfort.It wasn’t strength.It was distance. That sentence told me more than any argument ever could.It said: “I don’t want to step into this with you.”It said: “Handle it alone.” And maybe they didn’t mean harm.Maybe they thought they were encouraging me.But care is not just about intention—it’s about presence. Because when someone truly cares, they don’t rush you past your pain.They sit with you in it. They say,“I’m here. Tell me more.”Not,“Move on.” That day, I didn’t just learn about them…I learned about myself. I learned that my feelings deserve to be heard, not managed.That being strong doesn’t mean accepting emotional crumbs.And that love—real love—doesn’t stand at a distance and cheer you on… It walks into the fire with you and says,“You don’t have to go through this alone.”

It has been so hard this past year...alone trying to care for one who does not comfort or listen or even talk. It is hard to walk alone. I pray for strength for another day.
“Don’t Wait for the Moment—Walk in It”
The right moment isn’t something we sit and wait for—it’s something the Spirit creates through our obedience. When your heart is aligned and your faith is active, every moment becomes an opportunity to reflect God. Stop delaying what God already placed inside you. Speak, move, trust. Verse:“Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season…” — Bible, 2 Timothy 4:2 Story:I was sitting quietly, just listening.Someone was sharing their heart, saying they were waiting… waiting for the right moment to speak about Jesus, waiting for the perfect timing, the perfect words. I watched. I understood that feeling.The desire to get it “just right.”The fear of saying the wrong thing. They prayed, asking the Holy Spirit for the right moment, the right words. And something inside me stirred. Not loudly. Not forcefully.But clearly. I went back, smiled, and gently said,“May I recommend something… from my experience?” There was a pause. “I don’t think there is something called the ‘right moment.’When we are filled with the Holy Spirit, we don’t wait—we move.We present God by being aware, by following, by obeying.” Because truthfully…God is not waiting for perfect timing.He is looking for willing hearts. The moment becomes right the second you say yes.Yes to speaking.Yes to trusting.Yes to letting Him lead, even when your words feel simple. That day, I realized again—We don’t prepare the moment for God… He prepares us for the moment. Prayer:Lord,Teach me to stop hesitating and start obeying.Remove the fear that tells me to wait for perfect timing.Fill me so deeply with Your Holy Spirit that I overflow naturally, without striving.Give me boldness to speak, even when I feel unprepared,And humility to listen when You say “wait.”Let my life reflect You in every moment—not just the comfortable ones.Use my voice, my presence, and my obedience to point others to You.In Jesus’ name, Amen.

I have found this to be true so often. As I breathe prayers and live, these are the moments, God is here. A time to speak, a time to smile, a time to cry.
Trust the Waiting Season
David waited 12 years. Abraham waited 25 years. Joseph waited 13 years. Noah waited 120 years. Waiting is not rejection—it is preparation. In the silence, God is working. In the delay, He is shaping your heart. In the unknown, He is building your faith. Don’t rush what God is perfecting. What He promised, He will fulfill—right on time. Bible Verse: “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” — Isaiah 40:31

Remember the meme..."what do waiters do? They serve..." those stories mentioned tell of people who served faithfully during their waiting years. Consider also the women... Sarah, Hannah, Elizabeth, Mary... Waiting...patiently serving each day...
Trust the Closed Doors😇😇😇
When God closes doors, trust that He is opening the right ones—just be patient. I learned this the hard way. I didn’t want to understand. I kept pushing, working non-stop, becoming exhausted like a robot that never shuts down. I was worried, not eating, feeling lost and unworthy… carrying a broken heart and so many questions.😭😩🤥🤒😷 Then one day, I met an elderly woman at a store. She looked at me kindly and said, “You look sad… you’re so pretty.” I opened up and told her I was struggling. She gently smiled and said, “Struggling is a blessing. It prepares you for God’s plan. He is using you.”🙌 At that moment, I didn’t fully understand. But before she left, she said, “Go to Him and trust Him. He will open the right door.”💃💃💃 On my way home, I prayed. And in that quiet moment, I felt it in my heart: “Just trust Me.”🙏🙏🙏 That season wasn’t meant to break me—it was meant to grow me. God sends people into our lives at the right time to remind us: we are seen, we are loved, and we are guided.😍😍😍☀️ Trust the process. Even closed doors are part of His plan.

So true, closed doors, lost jobs, broken relationships ...endings may be heartbreaking but can create space for new beginnings.
“When the Holy Spirit Corrects My Heart”
This morning, during a simple coffee and conversation, the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart through my dear friend. A reminder I didn’t expect, but deeply needed: Be careful not to blame. In this world, we feel we have the right— for all the pain, the injustice, the things we’ve been through. But in the Kingdom… it’s different. In the Kingdom, it’s not about rights— it’s about surrender. Today I’m learning again to let go of blame, to release what I carry, and to return to my roots— to Jesus. To trust that my life is in His hands, even when I don’t understand. To grow, to soften, to become more like Him. Step by step, lesson by lesson… the Holy Spirit keeps guiding me back to the truth 🤍 My prayer : - “Growing Through His Voice” - “Growing Through His Voice” - “Growing Through His Voice” - Amen to the king of kings, Jesus the son of god

Learning to let go and trust... such an important lesson. I need to learn this again and again...like a child learning to walk.
