When God Says “Wait”...
Years ago, my husband, Jerry, and I were looking for a different house.
Every time we found one we loved and made an offer, I mentally moved in.
I knew where the furniture would go.
I had already decorated the living room and figured out where everything would go in the kitchen.
I could picture our life there.
Then the offer fell through.

Friend, have you ever become attached to something before God gave it to you?
I certainly have. Too many times.

The Freedom Of Letting God Decide What Belongs On Your List
Being needed feels important.
People call you because you're dependable.
They ask for your help because you're capable.
They trust you because you follow through.
Over time, that becomes part of how you see yourself.
You're the responsible one.
The reliable one.
The one everyone can count on.Â

For a long time, I did not think I was bitter.
A friend asked me, “Are you bitter?”
I said, “No, I’m just hurt. Disappointed.”
I felt vulnerable. Unsafe. And, exhausted.
I thought I had every right to feel the way I felt. And to protect myself from it happening again.
And some of what happened to me was very painful.
Some of it really was unfair. Unjust. Uncalled for. Not right.
But somewhere along the way, my hurt had quietly turned into bitterness, without me realizing it.
Not all at o...
Pressure quietly changes you more than you realize.
Not outwardly at first.
You still show up.
You still handle responsibilities.
People still see you as dependable, capable, and strong.
But internally, something slowly shifts.
Your mind rarely rests.
You think about everything constantly.
You try to stay ahead of problems before they happen.
