I feel like I’m in a season of waiting…
✨ Waiting to understand why I’m in so much pain all the time.
✨ Waiting to see if this new medicine will help.
✨ Waiting for God to move in the small business I built in obedience to Him.
I’ve lived with chronic pain for over 12 years. I’ve learned how to manage it most days, and I’ve made peace with the fact that complete healing may not come until Heaven—though some days, being strong feels really hard. I’ve seen so many doctors, and none of them have answers.
Lately, though, my business has been the hardest part. I created this planner because I know God told me to. I walked in obedience. Last year, I was left with over 100 planners, even after giving many away. This year, I ordered fewer—and I still have about 90 left. Sales have slowed, and waiting has felt heavy.
This isn’t a pity post—just honesty. It’s hard when we do what we believe God has asked of us, and the outcome doesn’t look the way we expected. I’m learning patience in real time. I’m learning to trust His timing, even when it’s uncomfortable, and to believe that this waiting season is not wasted.
“Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord.” — Psalm 27:14
I know this is temporary. And I know His plan is far greater than mine—even here, even now.
