Happy Monday Sis!!!!!!!
You ever hit a point in life where you feel stuck? Like no matter what you do, nothing seems to move? I’ve been there. And if I’m keeping it real, there were times when I did everything but pray. I tried to fight against reality, thinking if I worked harder, pushed through, or ignored the pain, things would change. But let me tell you something—reality will always win.
It wasn’t until I was at the end of my abusive relationship, standing at the edge of what felt like no return, that I finally got on my knees and prayed. Not the cute, scripted prayers. The raw, “God, I need You or I won’t make it” kind of prayer. And guess what? God answered.
Faith is the Foundation
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that faith is the rock. It’s the difference between staying stuck and stepping into God’s promises. The Bible tells us in
Hebrews 11:1(KJV), “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
Faith is trusting God’s plan, even when you can’t see the blueprint.
And when you have faith? Sis, that’s when things start shifting. That’s when God starts moving.
When Practicality Gets in the Way of Faith
I won’t lie—there have been times when I let my practicality block my faith.
- “I can’t afford to make a big financial move.”
- “I don’t have childcare, so I can’t take that job.”
But here’s the thing: Faith requires action. You can’t say you believe in God’s provision but refuse to take a step forward. If you’re praying for financial freedom but don’t have a budget, how can you expect change? If you’re asking God to remove you from a toxic situation but haven’t set boundaries, how can you walk in His protection?
Faith in Action: What Can You Do Today?
God is a God of miracles, but He also calls us to move. Here are some ways you can put faith into action:
- Feeling stuck financially? Start with a simple budget, look for creative income sources, or even offer childcare services.
- Praying for emotional healing? Sis, go to therapy, journal, join a bible study group. God gives us resources—use them!
- Waiting for a new job opportunity? Prepare. Update your resume, apply, network—move as if the opportunity is already yours.
God Will ALWAYS Come Through
I won’t sugarcoat it—faith isn’t easy. But I promise you, when you start moving with God, you will see a shift. It may not happen overnight, but it will happen.
Sis, don’t let fear keep you stuck. Don’t let practicality block your blessings. Trust God, take action, and watch God, do what only GOD can do.
Have a great week!
