When It’s Good

A week ago, I made a social post about the importance of being okay with being “Back at One”.  It was the theme for the week, as we launched the REset series this month.  No sooner did I post it, that I felt this tug on my heart to step away, to REset.   

God reminded me that a REset doesn’t have to always be sparked by something negative and how even amid goodness, we must stop, step back, and process what we’ve just walked into.  

On June 30th I stepped into something that I’ve been believing would happen for my family for the last two and half years.  Although extremely excited, grateful and overjoyed at the completion of a promise that God had made to me, I also found myself faced with all of the moments of disappointment over the last two and half years that showed up each time, I thought that it would happen sooner.  I also have all the lessons, and testimonies of God’s goodness to me and my family all along the way.  I have the answered prayers that took place on the journey as I watched my adult children mature and step into their purpose.  I have all of the reminders of how my soul just knew that it was going to happen. Although I had no tangible proof of it, that knowing in my soul kept me going.   

I have all of those things and all of the emotions that come with them.  So, I obeyed that divine nudge and I stepped away.  I took care of me and my family, and I listened and sought God as the moments of being amid this great miracle left me at times feeling overwhelmed as I allowed God to mentally prepare me for what is next. 

I share this with you today, in hopes that as you look forward into the remainder of 2025 that you’ll take the time along the way to BE GOOD TO YOU.  That you will take time away to process your emotions in every season; good or bad.  That you will value the REset.  Knowing that it is necessary to continue forward successfully; purposefully; strategically.
