08: I messed up and tried running someone else's race.
I messed up. I began looking at the race other women were running and deemed their strategy as mine. I started planning to launch two episodes a week. One episode on scripture and the other on implementation of that scripture. It sounds good, it sounds right, it sounds like hustle, it sounds beneficial except, it wasn't what God asked me to do.
Before Simply Put ever began God reaffirmed over and over again that it was not my job to give good advice but an honor to share God's wisdom. It was not my place to impart my strategy. It was only my place to embrace His sovereignty.
James 4:17 says, "If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them" through this verse I prayed for clarity. In His presence, I felt conviction.
From the outside looking in, maybe launching these types of episodes didn't look like a sin but from the inside looking out I knew - it wasn't what He had asked me to do. It's been five weeks since I've touched my microphone. Five weeks of receiving His grace and waiting in His presence for my next step.
Come hangout and hear what He has spoken to me over the last five weeks.
