BECAUSE HE SAID SO. 🤎
October 8, 2020.
A date that changed the direction of my life.
I remember reading the devotional “Because He Said So” through Girlfriends in God, anchored in Luke 5:4–5. It was a confirmation of what God had already spoken to my heart: it was time to leave my job and step into what would become CHOSEN.
I didn't have the full picture. I didn't know what the journey would require. I just knew I had heard Him.
And I said yes.
Today, what I find myself celebrating isn't simply what I've built. It's the woman I'm becoming in the process.
More anchored in my identity.
More aligned with my purpose.
More settled in what God has spoken.
More willing to let the process unfold without needing to control every outcome.
I'm learning that alignment doesn't always mean having everything figured out. Sometimes it means being at peace while the picture is still developing.
And to the woman who is waiting for clarity, waiting for confirmation, waiting to feel ready enough to take the next step…
You don't have to become someone else to walk into what God has for you.
You can breathe.
You can be present.
You can trust what you know.
You can take the next step without demanding that God show you the entire staircase.
There is a difference between striving to prove yourself and moving from a place of knowing who you are.
I'm learning to live from that place.
Six years ago, I said yes because He said so. Today, I'm still saying yes—but with a deeper understanding of who I am, what I'm called to steward, and the grace to let the journey unfold.
CHOSEN is still unfolding. And so am I.
Sometimes the most faithful thing you can do is stop striving to become and allow yourself to BE. 🤎
Happy Boss Day to Me
