Today’s devotional hit me hard. I just had a convo with a client earlier about the resentment I’ve carried toward my egg donor, the pain, the choices she made, and how they shaped my life. I used to ask myself, “What would life have looked like if things were different?”
But then I remembered when one of the leaders in my men’s group at church pulled me aside months ago. He helped me shift my perspective. He said, “Those trials you’ve lived through… they molded you. They gave you depth, resilience, purpose.” And he was right. Those storms made me effective in my calling. I am a living, breathing testimony that no matter how bad your hand was dealt, there’s always a way to rise.
Even my breakup last September, yeah, it crushed me, but it also sparked a health transformation. Look at me now. I don’t see problems anymore, I see lessons. I see direction. God doesn’t waste pain, He uses it to refine, to redirect, to rebuild.
So if you’re in a storm, pause and ask:
🔹 What am I being shown?
🔹 What can I learn?
🔹 How can I grow from this?
Mindset is EVERYTHING. And when you unlock that growth mentality, your potential becomes limitless. 💯
