Another “But God” Moment

Aug 14, 2024

Eye surgery is coming up soon. I have been blessed not to be blind at this point in my life. Diabetes almost destroyed me, and although my work ethic was super amazing, I kept touring city after city, pushing my brand, knowing that I needed to be home, attending my doctors’ appointments and making sure my health was my first priority. It was a hard lesson for me because I have been operating with about 40% total sight for the last few years. Now, God is giving me so much grace because it hasn’t hindered me. I have actually accomplished more in the last few years since I walked away from Unapologetic Urban Gear and moved to Los Angeles.

At the moment, I have no vision in my right eye, and my left eye has 40% vision with cataracts in both eyes. My eyesight is sort of like when you get out of the shower, and the steam has the mirrors all fogged up—that is probably a good glimpse into my life. However, I have learned to navigate the second largest city in America, build courses on new platforms, edit videos for my daily content, and I am now committed to daily blogs. All of these are ‘but God’ moments.

Honestly, this blog started out because I just wanted to share about God’s grace in enabling me to have an eye surgery that could take my left eye up to 80% or more vision. This season has been challenging, but without it, I wouldn’t have become the man I am now who is writing this blog. We all face many challenges. The beautiful thing is that if we belong to God and He goes before us, nothing is wasted. I am always amazed that Jesus never emphasized how the fish and bread went so far but emphasized what was left over. Nothing is wasted—that is the same for my life and yours. The design of ‘But God’ became an evergreen product because most people understand that only God can step out of eternity into time to do things on our behalf. Life is not perfect, but we have a God who goes before us.
