Trusting God’s Timing in Midlife: A Beautiful Lesson in Faith

God’s Timing — It’s a Beautiful Thing

God has walked with me since I was a little girl.
I’ve always felt His presence in the strongest of ways.
I never doubted that He was there. I knew. I believed. With my whole heart.

He’s been guiding me on this beautiful journey I’ve been walking for the last 52 years.
Every milestone. Every accomplishment. Every stumble along the way.

When I felt like I was on the wrong path – or behind – or when a detour popped up,
He knew I was taking the exact steps that would lead me here…
To this moment.

This moment that has been years in the making.
And I’m not just walking the path – I’m running, leaping into it.

It’s not really about me.
It’s about being a vessel for God’s light, love, and words to flow through me –
in hopes that I can help guide other women along their path as they walk their own.

And I couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come.
I know it will be amazing.
A whole new adventure.

I’m leaning into the abundance God has given me -the abundance He’s given you, too.

A Little Wisdom I Needed to Hear

I recently read this Chinese proverb:

“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now.”

This reminds me that it’s never too late to begin something meaningful –
whether it’s healing, growth, or chasing a long-held dream.

The time is now.

Godś timiing…It really is a beautiful thing.

Let’s Reflect Together

Have you ever had a moment when God’s timing stopped you in your tracks?
When things finally made sense – even if it took a while?

I’d love to hear your story in the comments below.
