Keep Going—God's Not Done With You Yet ⭐
Keep Going—God's Not Done With You Yet ⭐
Some days you've got your Bible open, your coffee is hot, worship music is playing, and you're feeling like you've got this whole "walking by faith" thing figured out.
Then there are the other days.
The coffee gets reheated three times.
You forget why you walked into the kitchen.
You read the same Bible verse four times because your mind keeps wandering.
And somehow you end up asking yourself, "Lord... am I even doing this right?"
Can I tell you something?
God isn't sitting in heaven disappointed because you had an off day.
He's not keeping score.
He's not waiting for you to get your life perfectly together before He walks with you.
He's already with you.
One thing I've learned over the past couple of years is this: faith isn't about being perfect. It's about showing up.
Some days showing up looks like spending an hour in prayer.
Other days it looks like whispering, "Jesus, help me," before your feet even hit the floor.
Both matter.
Both are faith.
I've had moments where I questioned what God was doing.
I've wondered if I was making progress.
I've questioned whether Growing Faith | Butterfly Bliss was really making a difference.
Then God reminds me...
I'm not responsible for the outcome.
I'm responsible for being faithful.
That changes everything.
Because if my job is simply to trust Him, then I can stop carrying weight that was never mine to carry.
Here's something that always makes me smile...
God has never looked at your life and said, "Well... I didn't see that coming."
Your unexpected bill?
He saw it.
Your broken heart?
He knew.
The prayer you've been waiting months—or years—to see answered?
He hasn't forgotten it.
God has never been surprised by your story.
So why do we act like He's scrambling to figure it out?
He's not.
While we're stressing over Plan A, B, and C...
God is already at Plan Forever.
When life feels messy, we tend to think God has stepped away.
But sometimes He's doing His best work in the waiting.
He's growing your faith.
He's changing your heart.
He's preparing you for something you can't see yet.
Friend, don't confuse God's silence with His absence.
They're not the same thing.
If you're exhausted today...
Keep going.
If you're discouraged...
Keep going.
If you feel like you're taking one tiny step forward and two giant steps back...
Keep going.
Not because you're strong enough.
But because God is.
And here's your reminder before you leave...
You don't have to have a perfect quiet time.
You don't have to know all the answers.
You don't have to feel "spiritual enough."
Just keep showing up.
Open your Bible.
Pray the honest prayer.
Trust God with today's step.
Tomorrow can wait until tomorrow.
Because the God who has carried you this far isn't about to leave you now.
He's still writing your story.
And trust me...
His ending is always better than anything we could have written ourselves.
