Stepping out on faith
I have been told I have crazy faith, and yes, I do. When I was getting divorced, I started a new business with no steady income to support me or my girls and no alimony to fall back on.
Yes, I knew God would take care of me, and he did. When I went for a mortgage knowing full well, I didn’t have enough time on my job to get approved. Guess what? I got approved.
When my deal fell through with my landlord to buy the property, even though I was crushed, I knew he had a bigger and better plan for me and then bam! I got a home 38,000 cheaper than anything in the market! Really?? In that market? That was unheard-of! Before I found this place, I out bidded on 3 other homes that went for the above asking price.
Yes, I have sick faith. I wasn’t worried. I didn’t lose sleep stressing over it, I knew it would all work out.
Was I human? Absolutely and yes, sometimes I was scared and wondered what was going to happen, but then I remembered how many other incredible things happened in my life with my faith, and I let it go.
You might be out there today reading this, maybe your in a horrible marriage like I was. Maybe you’ve hit rock bottom, maybe as this year is starting and all that you wished for, prayed for didn’t come to pass….yet! That is the keyword, YET!
I remember I thought I was ready to leave my marriage, but it wasn’t to be yet. No, I had to wait it out 4 years before it was to be, but that 4 years taught me patience, and it taught me strength. It showed me how strong I truly was. It wasn’t my time and so maybe right now isn’t your time, YET!
That doesn’t mean you need to give up or to think your dreams aren’t coming. It doesn’t mean that all you prayed for wasn’t heard. It’s coming, trust me. I couldn’t and didn’t imagine that I would own my own home. That wasn’t even part of my dreams. Yet here it was….incredible.
As far as the future goes for me, yes, I have even bigger dreams. A New York Times bestselling book, doing what is my purpose, writing my blog full time, doing speaking engagements, and telling others never to stop believing, dream big, then dream bigger.
So today, my friends put it out there, believe it, see it, and imagine it as if it has already happened and never, never give up hope. Just step out in faith….and just believe!!
