You Can No Longer Choose To Stay Hidden On The Sidelines.

Its time for you to wake up and make a decision. Let's be real, choosing to not make a decision is a decision within itself. What if you chose to just do instead of choosing not to.

You can choose to live from the past experiences you keep rehearsing or you can choose to live freely.

You can choose to take a chance on you the way you have done for others or you can keep your gifts and talents hidden.

You have to be willing to make a choice.

You have to be willing to get up, pick up your mat and walk.

You have to be willing to say my 2026 will not look like my 2025 or my 2024 or my 2023.

You have to make that choice.

I can't make that decision for you.

That decision is yours and yours alone.

You can keep showing up for everyone else, but when are you finally deciding that you need to stand up for you too?

Remaining on the sidelines watching others play the field is no longer an option for me. I can't speak for you, but I have determined that my future is too important. Placing so much emphasis on what others have thought about me caused me to dim my light for too long. I'm done. My mind is made. My decision is to let go of people pleasing and begin walking out this new.

So what does that honestly look like. It's setting down the old mindset and picking up the mind of Christ that be in Christ Jesus. It's recognizing that God laid out a foundation for us to be built upon and that Jesus is the chief cornerstone. It's believing that you are truly wonderfully and fearfully made. That as a handcrafted design, you are one of a kind. Never duplicated because the purpose within you carries your DNA. They may have tried to one up, but I believe that God lays out a blueprint that has specifically ordained with your name on it. My question is, will you claim it? Will take hold of it and walk in it?

Will you arise from the sidelines and throw on the jersey that's been sitting beside you this entire time. Will get up and walk and trust that in your movement lies the refining process if you would just trust His processing.

You were never meant to get stuck in the processing season of being refined. it was simply a way for Him to work out the areas that needed to be refined for the version of you that was emerging. Like gold, it gets tried by the fire, but not burned. it gets into a position where once he is done molding it for what it is needed for, it becomes solid. As he continues to mold it in the fashion of which it is used for you will get to see how he is the God who can make what once seemed impossible to now become an open door.
