sitting here and reflecting on all the memories this year has brought so far. it’s been a hot minute since i’ve wrote, but so much has been on my heart lately that i hate to keep it all bottled up from you all.
this past week has been an eye opener. at least for me. when i look back at this past year, i feel like it’s been a constant roller coaster of changes. nothing has stayed the same.
ya know it’s crazy. change is something that we are all accustomed to, yet shaken and confused when it occurs. it’s like so normal that when it actually happens we all don’t know how to deal with it. which is totally understandable- because everyone likes for their life to stay the same in some ways.
this past week, so many people have reached out to me about how their life has been experiencing very hard, fearful changes. changes that they cannot help.
it’s weird how God works. a month ago i was so confused and shaken in my walk with God & to be honest i was so mad at him. i felt like every time i turned around something good was being replaced with something bad. but one thing is for sure, God doesn’t leave you in the bad.
this week so many people have texted me and said “Why me?” but the truth is- God would not bring you in a storm that he can’t bring you out of. you are far more stronger than you know and are accustomed to.
change this year has grown me and also broken me. but God works all things together for the good. and i’m somehow finally starting to realize it after all this time.
i guess all i’m trying to say is, some people have it harder than others. but every battle you experience is important and one day will shape you into the person you strive to be, if it hasn’t already shaped you into that person.
life is not meant to be easy. it just simply isn’t. no matter how much we wish it was. but it’s the change in perspective of how you get through it.
it’s sad it takes us having nothing left to come to when we decide to trust God and obey him. but maybe that’s why we go through things- to bring us back to the importance of life and struggles. to bring us back to the one who holds our life in His hands.
so if you’re feeling down, know there are probably a million people in this world experiencing it w you. that doesn’t mean your problems are any less important than a stranger on a different continent or a friend down the street. just know that there will be light at your dark tunnel though.
somehow and sometime, the struggles won’t seem so hard and your happiness and peace won’t seem so far. you just have to find trust in God and that he will pull you through. even when it seems impossible to do so.
keep pushing. keep trying. God is working for you- not against you. reach out if you need help. let this season of change grow you and better you into the person you strive to be.
you are not alone. 🫶🏻
