I prayed.

I was born with drive and BIG dreams in my heart, I knew they would require many tools, so I prayed.

I prayed for grit.

I got suffering.

I prayed for fortitude.

I got pain.

I prayed for tenacity.

I fell short, many times. That disappointment became my fuel.

I prayed for resilience.

I got failure after failure, where I learned to get back up.

I prayed for wisdom.

I made a lot of mistakes, which are the best teachers.

I prayed to be used mightily for God’s glory.

And I got trials I never saw coming.

I’m not afraid of what the future holds. I see that where I’ve broken there is now strength. God’s plan IS good. It can be hard to see and even harder to understand, but I’ve never  been more excited about what I believe is yet to come.

Right foot. Left foot. Keep going.
