Can i be honest with you?


The wrestle is real but it is not wasted...

Have you ever been amazed by the butterfly, Reader? When it struggles to push out of the chrysalis, it looks painful. But scientists tell us that wrestle is what forces blood into the wings so it can fly. If you cut the butterfly out early, it wouldn’t make it.

That’s how I’m making sense of my own life right now. And perhaps the same goes for you, Reader. I’ve been working and showing up, but I’m still seeing very little result. And to get a new outcome, I know a new version of me has to emerge. My thoughts can’t just keep repeating the old ones, because the old ones only create the same outcomes we’ve already seen. Can you relate?


If you’ve felt that too, I want to invite you to listen to my latest podcast episode:


Trusting God When Nothing Is Working Out


In it, I share more about how I’m walking through this season — the fear, the new territory, and the trust that God is with me in it all.


And this is true for you too, Reader: you don’t have to fear. God is not intimidated by your wrestle and all the thoughts and emotions that come with it. Give them to Him. He is strengthening you from the inside out so you can step into the new, do the new, and sustain it.


“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being.” — Ephesians 3:16


The wrestle is real, but it’s not wasted. God is building wings.

The world Jesus walked

Step Into the Story of Scripture... The world Jesus walked. Hi Reader, Some of us have walked with Scripture for many years. We’ve highlighted the same verses, underlined the same passages, and prayed through the familiar stories of Jesus, His followers, and the early church. And yet — sometimes we forget that these were real people living in a real world. Streets with dust beneath their feet. Homes filled with fear, hope, and prayer. A temple that stood in glory — and then fell. Political...

The wilderness is where God speaks tenderly — this is where He restores your heart. "I will lead you into the wilderness...and speak tenderly to your heart." Hosea 2:14 Have you ever felt like you’re learning the same lessons again and again, Reader? Like you have big dreams, real God-given desires, but they feel: far away, or shrinking, or maybe even slipping further out of reach? And you start asking yourself: “Why is this taking so long?” “Am I missing something?” “Should I just stop...

Being still in not failure — especially when God is the reason... "From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised." Psalm 113:3 Lately, I’ve been sitting with a lot, Reader — questions, emotions, and thoughts I didn’t expect. There were days when I felt like if this one thing doesn’t work out — it’s over. That if a deal doesn’t come through, or if breakthrough doesn’t happen soon, then maybe there’s no real hope left. I’ve had moments where I finally...
