The Naïve Perspective

I know it hurts friend, but let's try and look at that rejection in a different light. The doors that were closed pushed you towards the new doors you needed to step through. There is so much power in a rejection and hopefully this helps to reframe the situation for you.

Raise your hand if you've been feeling bleeehhh lately. I know I have, and I think it's for a divine reason. Honestly, I'm not sure what's the next form of expression I will take but I know whatever it is it will be authentically me and in alignment with His will. So here's a few words of encouragement to get you through this season of bleeehhh. Hope it helps!

I know friend, we all want things to go how we envision, but God doesn't work that way. His ways are not our own and MOST times we have to just let go and let Him work. Now this isn't an excuse to be lazy and complacent, but instead understand that if it's in His will it will come in His timing, and not a second, month, or year sooner.

We may have some grand requests for the Lord but don't be afraid to share those small requests with Him too. He will come through for you and meet you where you're at every time. Send out the prayer, no matter how big or small it is.

This is urgent friends and straight from the man upstairs himself. I hope you take heed of the warning. There's still but it is running out so do what you gotta do to get in God's good graces before it's too late.

I know this may come as a surprise friends, but those gifts and talents that you were blessed with are actually not for you. That means holding them inside you or not sharing them out of fear or doubt is very harmful and could be holding someone else back on their journey. We are all connected and have a duty to one another so whether you like it or not you have to get it out. All of it.

If no one's told you lately, you are worthy, friend. However, that doesn't mean you will also feel confident in everything you do. Those are two different things, and understanding that they are not directly correlated allows you to get to the root and see the real issues you might have.

I've had my fair share of offers come my way friend, and what I'm realizing is that every opportunity that comes my way is not meant to be pursued, and sometimes the least monetary enticing offering is the one I actually need to dive into. So think about what you've been entertaining lately because you think it's giving you the satisfaction you want or getting you closer to your goals. When you recenter God in the equation, is it actually worth it?

Take that step forward friend, I promise you will be okay. Sometimes it may feel like there are too many options and you may feel doomed to make the wrong decision but that's not how it works. You are free to choose, and also to ensure your choice is the right one. Remember who will always be in your corner and He won't let you down. So move with confidence friend, because this stagnant position is not serving you.

Slight rant, slight message, but ultimately a space for the realization that everything we are waiting for lies in the seeds that have already been placed in us. Are you willing to plant those seeds, and be patient friend?
