There are so many people right now praying for a lifeboat. Praying for time freedom, to get out of debt, to finally say yes to vacations, extracurriculars, private school, or just not feel that constant stress every time another bill hits or when you have to go get groceries or that tank of gas. And I see it all the time..people praying to God for a way out, a better opportunity, a shift in their life.
And Iāll be really honest, I talk to people every single day who are looking for exactly that. I see the posts, I have the conversations, I hear the desire for something more. And I am always open and transparent about the blessing I have my hands on and willing to share it with anyone whoās ready for it.
But hereās the hard truth. A lot of times, the answer to those prayers is already right in front of them. And when it shows upā¦they hesitate, they overthink it, they ignore it, or they say yes but donāt actually show up and do the work.
We want the blessing, but weāre not always willing to step into the responsibility that comes with it.
Faith isnāt just praying and waiting. Itās recognizing the opportunity when God places it in front of you and having the courage to actually move on it. He can open the door, but Heās not going to walk through it for you. And He canāt multiply what youāre not willing to use.
Sometimes the lifeboat doesnāt look how you expected. Sometimes it requires growth, consistency, and showing up when itās inconvenient. That doesnāt make it any less of an answer to your prayers.
If youāve been asking for more-more time, more freedom, more money, take a second and really ask yourself if youāve already been given an opportunity that youāve been too scared or too inconsistent to fully step into. Because the shift youāre praying for might not be coming⦠it might already be here. ļæ¼š«¶š¼
