It’s a breezy day in Georgia, and I’m sitting on my brother’s back porch, scrolling through my to-do list on my calendar. From the outside looking in, it feels like the odds are stacked against my wife and I in this season. Yet, even in the face of uncertainty, we have hope—a hope rooted in God and in the calling He’s placed on our lives.
But if I’m honest, I woke up feeling a little defeated today. I hate that feeling. I hate battling negative thoughts. But it’s a fight that has to be fought because those thoughts, if left unchecked, can drag you down for days—sometimes even weeks.
This morning, as those negative thoughts started flooding my mind, I felt the Spirit of the Lord nudge me: Why are you letting those thoughts take over?
I didn’t have a real answer. My response was simple: I don’t know. But here’s the thing—acknowledging the problem wasn’t enough. I had to act. I had to do something about it immediately.
I started by focusing on what was really overwhelming me—deadlines and the weight of everything we need to accomplish. It felt like too much. But in that moment, I was reminded of something we all need to remember: we don’t have to carry these burdens alone. God invites us to give our burdens to Him, to trust Him with what feels impossible for us to handle on our own.
Hebrews 11:1 (NFB) says:
“Faith is the reality of what we hope for, the proof of what we don’t see.”
This verse is powerful. It defies logic, yet it speaks to the very core of what faith is. My hope isn’t in my abilities or my own strength—it’s in Jesus. He gave us hope, He gave us life, and He gave us purpose.
So, I hold on to faith, even when I can’t see the outcome. I focus on the substance that’s unseen, trusting that God is working all things together for His glory and for our good. I’m committed to walking in what He’s called me to do, to becoming who He’s shaping me to be in the marketplace, and to modeling His love and grace in all that I do.
I’m holding on to faith.
