Life has a way of testing you just before it blesses you. The moments that feel the hardest—the ones that shake your foundation, break your heart, and leave you questioning everything—are often the moments right before a breakthrough.
These past few days have been some of the most painful I’ve ever experienced. The kind of pain that sits heavy in your chest, making it hard to breathe. The kind of heartbreak that reminds you just how deeply you loved, how much you believed, and how much you had to let go.
And yet, even in the midst of it all, God has shown up in ways I never expected.
The Flood of Blessings
I truly believe that when you’re walking the path meant for you, even the losses serve a greater purpose. Even the heartbreak is clearing the way for something better. Even the pain is a lesson wrapped in love.
Just when I felt like I was drowning, the blessings started flooding in. My phone has been ringing with new opportunities, my business is growing, and most importantly, I have felt the overwhelming love and support of the people who truly see me. And in the middle of it all, my son received the kind of news that makes you drop to your knees in gratitude. What could have been life-altering instead became a moment of victory.
Even in my darkest moment, God has been lighting the path forward.
Trusting Through the Pain
It’s easy to believe in God’s plan when things are going well. It’s much harder when everything feels like it’s falling apart. But I’ve learned that if you keep your eyes on Him, He will guide you through—even when you can’t see what’s ahead.
Not every blessing comes wrapped in joy. Sometimes, it comes through clarity, through doors closing, through the people who stand beside you when you’re at your lowest. And sometimes, it comes through the simple reminder that you are not alone.
So if you’re in the middle of your own storm, if you’re carrying heartbreak or pain that feels unbearable—hold on. Keep trusting. Keep walking. Because God is always working, even when you don’t see it yet.
I don’t know exactly where this path is leading, but I do know this—I am not walking it alone. And for that, I am grateful. ❤️
