6 Years Ago — And Look What God Has Done

Six years ago today, I drove to Texas with a dream in my heart — to work in a gym and help people transform their lives through health and discipline.


At first, everything felt like the beginning of my purpose. I learned, I grew, and I discovered a part of myself I didn’t know existed.

But the most important lesson that season taught me was this: I am called to help people, not take advantage of their need.

And the moment my integrity was challenged, I walked away. Not because it was easy — but because my values were not negotiable.

The months that followed were not gentle.

They were some of the hardest of my life.

I fell into places emotionally and spiritually that felt like a pit.

But even there… God met me.

Leaving that job opened the door for something far more important: time with Him.

Time to attend church, to read His Word, to hear His voice again. And slowly — gently — He restored my strength and rebuilt my hope.

The enemy tried to destroy me more times than I can count.

But Jesus’ blood is stronger.

His authority is greater.

And by His grace alone, I am still standing.

Today, I look back and see how far He has carried me:

✨ Two published devotionals

✨ A ministry-coaching program being built with faith

✨ A renewed mind and a restored spirit

✨ A heart aligned with purpose

✨ A vision clearer than ever before


Life is still not easy. There are days I feel like I’m walking a thin line between two cliffs.

But the difference now is this:

I am not afraid.

Because I know Who is holding me.

I’m in the middle right now — not where I was, not yet where I’m going — but I can see the other side.

I can see the light.

I can see the purpose.

And I know God is carrying me all the way there.

If you are in your “middle,” don’t give up.

God is already guiding your steps to the other side. 🤍✨
