Improve it: Experiencing God's Timing in Relation to Anxiety


Dear Diary 📓,

I am amazed by the incredible journey I have been on. Today, as I reflect 🤔, I am overwhelmed with emotions 😭. This story is one that I never imagined I would live, but it has taught me invaluable lessons about faith 🙏, resilience 💪, and the power of God's timing 🕰️.

A few months ago, we were struggling financially 💰 and facing foreclosure 🔒. Each day was a battle ⚔️, and despair seemed to lurk around every corner. Our electricity was also cut off 🔌, leaving our home in darkness and cold ❄️.




I vividly remember that night, feeling defeated and crushed in spirit 😔. Anxiety gripped my heart ❤️, and thoughts of hopelessness consumed my mind 🧠. Tears streamed down my face as I questioned why this was happening to us. Fear whispered in my ear, convincing me that we were destined to lose everything.

But it is during these moments of desperation that we often find ourselves at a crossroads, where faith becomes our guiding light. It was during this time that I made a conscious decision to surrender everything to God, to trust in His plan and His timing. It was not an easy choice, as doubt and worry still lingered within me, but I chose to lean on Him and believe that He would provide.

Days turned into weeks 🗓️, and just when I thought I couldn't hold on any longer, a miracle 🌟 happened. It was as if God was silently orchestrating every detail behind the scenes, bringing together a tapestry of blessings 🙌. Opportunities arose, offering solutions to our financial crisis 💡. My husband found a new job 💼 that brought stability and a sense of security 🔒. Slowly but surely, we regained our footing.

And then, at the perfect moment, the most incredible event took place 🎉. With joy in my heart ❤️ and tears of gratitude streaming down my face 😭, I received a call 📞 from a friend who encouraged me to call my company again. They gave me more time and excused the foreclosure due to my circumstances. They understood. We are now free from foreclosure and have been able to catch up on many bills 💸, including our home with the acceptance of two new jobs 💼💼, which, of course, came on time.

What I learned is to be still and know that God has everything under control 🙏, even if it doesn't feel like it.

Beatitudes, Wilderness, and Revelations

        We owe our ability to witness Jesus' gospel today to the courageous individuals who preceded us, venturing into the wilderness to seek the Father. Just think, if John had succumbed to laziness or illness, the entire narrative would have been forever changed. Nevertheless, John the Baptist dutifully fulfilled the words of the living word, preaching with his characteristic zeal. It is truly remarkable how his occupation marked the inception of the most significant odyssey in the entire universe. As the beatitudes teach us, when we align ourselves with the Spirit of God, we are always in perfect harmony with His divine purpose. Matthew 5:3-12 Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mour  for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be sho...

This story is one that I never expected to live, but it has taught me invaluable lessons about faith, resilience, and the power of divine timing. September 2023 This month began with its fair share of challenges. September has always been a difficult time for me, as it marks the anniversary of the passing of my sister, grandmother, and other painful incidents from the past. Needless to say, I never look forward to September. So, I was still unemployed... And the pressure to provide for my children intensified as they started school. Transitioning from the lazy days of summer to the hustle and bustle of fall was not easy. But what I learned from God... I learned to let go of my pride. First, there was a back-to-school event at the school where I was able to get some supplies for my kindergartener. Then, a close friend reached out and took the kids to another bac...
