I Told God I Didn't Have Time for My Calling... Then Everything Changed

Some Prayers Are Waiting on Your Development

Most people think they're waiting on God. But what if God is waiting on you? In this episode, I unpack one of the biggest realizations I've had on my journey: being called and being ready are not the same thing. After attending the Truth & Fire Conference, I found myself reflecting on purpose, capacity, spiritual formation, and the often-overlooked process of becoming. We spend so much time praying for the next opportunity, the next level, the next open door, but rarely stop to ask: Who am I becoming in the process? I share lessons from my own journey, including what happened when I finally received an opportunity I had prayed for, only to discover I wasn't fully prepared to carry it. If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated, behind, overlooked, or like there's more in you than what you're currently experiencing, this conversation is for you. Because sometimes the delay isn't punishment. Sometimes it's development.

You Know About God... But Do You Know Him?

What's the difference between knowing God and actually having a relationship with Him? In this episode of Elevation Talks, I share the moment that changed everything for me. For years, I knew about God. I grew up in church, knew the stories, knew the language, and believed He was real. But there came a moment after my grandfather passed away when God showed me something I had never fully understood before: He didn't want me to rely on someone else's relationship with Him. He wanted a relationship with me. We talk about: * The difference between information and intimacy * Why borrowed faith can only take you so far * How life reveals whether you know God or just know about Him * Learning to hear God's voice for yourself * Building a relationship with God that isn't transactional If you've ever felt distant from God, struggled to hear His voice, or wondered if your faith is truly your own, this conversation is for you. 🎙️ Listen, reflect, and ask yourself: Do I know about God... or do I know Him? #FaithJourney #PersonalDevelopment #RelationshipWithGod #SpiritualGrowth #ElevationTalks

I Told God I Didn't Have Time for My Calling... Then Everything Changed

Have you ever looked around your life and wondered: "How did I get here?" In this episode of Elevation Talks, I share the real story behind my wilderness season, getting laid off, finding my purpose, and learning what happens when God calls you into something bigger than your plans. For years, I thought I was doing everything right. I had the degree, the job, the experience, and the work ethic. But what I didn't realize was that God wasn't trying to make me comfortable. He was trying to develop me. If you've been feeling lost, delayed, frustrated, disconnected from your purpose, or unsure about your next step, this conversation is for you. This episode is about obedience, purpose, identity, faith, and learning how to trust God when life doesn't make sense.
