Vision

Dear Reader,

I send you the warmest of greetings for this new year. I know I’m stretching that sentiment as far as it will go, considering we’re already halfway through this 2025 year, but indulge me.

You know, I had plans for this year, and truthfully, I started off pretty strong. I ended the fourth quarter with my annual recap, it gave ‘You go girl!’ vibes. Then, after a bit of deep work, my Q1 projections were screaming “You’ve got this!’ My heart was ready to take off into January when suddenly the ground began to shake. From worldquakes, fires, to silent goodbyes, the first four months of this year sent me into a dizzy spell. I felt disoriented, a bit anxious, and spent most moments tear-stained and wondering what exactly was going on here?! The work I put into healing my soul was finally in a place where deep breaths no longer hurt, and suddenly the atmosphere was hijacked by chaos and changes I didn’t ask for.

With everything happening so quickly, the only thing necessary thing to do was hold on. Transition had touched down with the determination of heaven, and distraction was attempting to gain entry behind it. Let’s be honest, chaos carries the ingredients for fear, doubt, and bitterness.

What was I going to do?!

It’s one thing to know that all things work together for the good of those who are called according to God’s purpose, but it’s a different thing entirely to experience the grace that comes when you walk with Holy Spirit. The heart of God is wild and beautiful, and His mind is uncontainable. How had He managed to write so much necessary growth into heartbreak?

He’s like that, meticulous in how He moves. He went before me and gave me what I needed to capture a vision, write it out, and assist others in doing the same, all the while knowing what was just beyond the week’s end. He didn’t prep me because He wouldn’t be with me or wouldn’t hold me up, not because mercy would somehow run out or that fear would miraculously become an ally. No, He did it because He was reminding me of the value of taking Him at His word and how writing out your vision will equip you with a compass that always points you in the right direction.

So, here I am, six months into this year, many quantum leaps into growth, and the vision still speaks. Isn’t it just like God to again prove Himself good?

Indeed, He IS.

Whatever is going on around you or even within you, set your focus on His face, meditate on His rhema, make His presence your priority and take the next step toward what you saw… even if that means you need to seek Him to See Again.

Grace & Peace,

LL
