Are you disappointed?


Disappointments feel personal. But they are not your identity...

I’ve had my share of disappointments, Reader—dreams I thought were from God, plans I pursued with all my heart, only to see them collapse.

And here’s what I’ve realized:
What makes disappointment so heavy isn’t just the loss itself.
It’s the meaning we attach to it.

We tell ourselves things like:
“I failed.”
“I’m not good enough.”
“Maybe I’ll never get it right.”

Why? Because we’ve started to confuse our identity with our process.
But hear me, Reader—you are not your process.
You are not your timeline.
You are not your performance.

Your identity has always been in Jesus. And the process? That’s just the road He walks with you—full of questions, emotions, silence, and discovery.

In this week’s episode of Curious for Christ, we talk about the Emmaus Road in Luke 24 and what it means to walk through disappointment with Jesus. It’s not always comfortable, but it’s deeply human—and deeply sacred.

Because when our plans fall apart, it’s not the end of the story, Reader.
It might just be the beginning of seeing God more clearly.
And remembering that we don’t have to be God—we just get to be His beloved.

If you’re in a place of waiting or wondering what now, this one is for you.

With love and light in the process,

When it feels like you're going in circles... Every step looks familiar...but you've changed. God is growing you in the spiral. Hi Reader, Lately, I’ve been noticing something strange at work. I recently started a new role on a new team, and yet… some of the work felt oddly familiar. Almost like I’d been here before. At first, it unsettled me, Reader. Was I stuck? Was I just repeating the same cycle again? But as I leaned in with God, I saw something deeper. I wasn’t repeating — I was being...

God is near—even when He feels silent. Hey Reader, Have you ever been in a season where God just feels… absent? I’m in a time like that right now. Life’s been full of risks, transitions, and new places I didn’t plan for. And while I’ve followed God for years, even now—He doesn’t always feel close. Growing up, I didn’t know God. And even now as a believer, it’s not always easy to stay grounded. I find myself crying out: “God, where are You?”“What’s the plan?” Sometimes I’m afraid I’ll bring...

Even in my fear and questions, God is teaching me that faith doesn't have to be flawless-it just have to be real... Not every prayer has an answer yet, but I'm still writing them down. This week’s podcast was all about walking by faith—not sight—especially when anxiety takes over. But here’s the truth behind the mic, : I didn’t record it from a mountaintop of clarity. I wrote it while staring at a whole lot of unknowns. In my heart. In my marriage. In conversations that are tender and honest...
