Episode 224

TODAY’S READING:

36 You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.

Hebrews 10:36

 

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but I was praying, and I came to the realization that this year changed my life forever.

 

I have been producing these episodes non-stop. I have connected with so many of you from all over the world.

 

I rarely, if ever, ask for prayer, but I wanted to share some exciting news.

 

As you know, I am a coffee-obsessed baker. I have been baking out of my home kitchen for years, and this year I was given the opportunity to secure an in-person location at a collective eatery in South Miami. Basically a food hall.

 

My dreams are about to come true. I share this because it’s been my dream to open a bakery. Last year, when I was going through some health struggles which didn’t allow me to stand for long periods of time, and when I outgrew my kitchen, and when the pandemic hit, I had to take a step back from my baking business and re-strategize.

 

I launched this podcast, and this community grew. This timing is no coincidence. It’s all God’s timing.

 

So if my story can do anything, it can prove that God is faithful. He knows the desires of your heart. Sometimes He will ask you to detour from your plans, and all He is asking is for your trust.

 

This community isn’t going anywhere; no matter how long my to-do list gets, prayer will always be first. Let me encourage you; pray first. Make it a priority. Listen to when he nudges you. He will surpass your wildest imagination. He is a good good father.

 

PRAYER

Father God, we all have dreams, we all have plans but remind us to do your will, first and foremost. We ask that you guide us, you nudge us, you give us the strength when we want to stop. We thank you for trusting us with your vision, with your works, with your people. We ask that you bless the day ahead of us; it is with everything to us that we pray, AMEN!
