About this listen
This episode is your gentle (but firm) reminder that obedience doesn’t always come with a green light to go. Sometimes, God tells us to pause — and that can feel frustrating when we’re full of vision and momentum. But what if the pause is the protection? What if it’s preparation?
I open up about a moment I got ahead of God — and how He lovingly pulled me back to realign. We’re talking storyboarding with God, learning to rest in His timing, and why that inner itch to pivot may be a sign to sit still instead of sprint forward.
If you’ve been in a season of almost, not yet, or wait right here, this one is for you.
🔑 In This Episode:
- The moment I knew I was out of alignment
- Why "moving by faith" isn’t the same as moving impulsively
- What to do when you're tempted to pivot prematurely
- How God used a quiet correction to protect my next move
- The power of obedience over activity
- What storyboarding with God looks like
- The subtle danger of good ideas vs. God instructions
- Why stillness is strategy

If God told you to pause, it’s not punishment — it’s preparation. Obedience now sets the foundation for overflow later. Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is... be still.
