What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people?
How are you all doing today?
It’s a beautiful day, and I’m genuinely excited to write this because I noticed something powerful today—something that many of us can easily overlook.
Sometimes situations feel manageable. We think, “As long as I reach out to the right people, it’ll eventually get handled.” And often, that’s where we stop. But today reminded me why we should never stop at human effort alone.
A Simple Situation… With a Big Lesson
This morning, I found myself locked out of my company’s website. Not intentionally—but because I recently upgraded my phone. My old phone, which had all my security access, was turned in, and suddenly I needed to reset everything.
That meant I had to submit a request to the tech department.
Now, from experience, I already knew how this usually goes. The last time I dealt with something like this, it took three days of follow-ups and persistence before it was resolved. So this time, after submitting my case, I prepared myself mentally to wait… and wait… and keep checking.
Then I Did Something Different
During my morning devotion, I paused and prayed.
I simply said, “God, thank You because You are God. Please help me. Touch the right people so this can be handled in a timely manner.”
And let me tell you—within hours, the issue was resolved.
The last time it took days.
This time, after prayer, it took hours.
That Made Me Think…
What if I hadn’t prayed?
I already knew how long it could take. But prayer changed the timing. God moved the right people to act on my behalf.
And that’s the encouragement I want to share with you today.
A Gentle Question for You
Is there something in your life right now where:
You’ve made the calls
You’ve sent the emails
You’ve reached out to the right people
And now… you’re just waiting?
Have you also prayed and asked God to move on your behalf—to align the timing, touch hearts, and cause things to work out smoothly?
Pray About Everything
Today’s message is simple:
Pray about everything.
Not just the big, overwhelming situations—but also the ones you think you can handle on your own. God is always working behind the scenes, and when we invite Him in, things shift.
I want to stay in the habit of asking God for help in every situation—big or small—because life flows better when we let Him lead.
As You Go About Your Day…
Give thanks.
Surrender your plans.
Offer both the things you understand and the things you don’t to God.
Ask Him to take control and cause everything to work out beautifully, according to His divine plan for you.
Have a blessed day 🤍
