🌿 Devotional Insight
How many blessings have we missed because we waited for perfect timing?
If you wait for the wind to stop or the clouds to clear before you move, you’ll never plant anything worth harvesting. These verses remind us that faith means moving forward even when conditions aren’t ideal.
As a licensed mental health therapist and Bible reader, I’ve seen how fear, doubt, and perfectionism often keep people from beginning their healing journey. We want everything to feel “just right” before we take the first step — but healing, growth, and transformation happen in motion, not in waiting.
God doesn’t ask for perfection — He asks for obedience and consistency. When you plant small seeds of effort, faith, and courage, you invite Him to water them in His timing. 🌱
🧠 Therapist’s Reflection
Healing doesn’t happen in stillness — it happens in motion.
Start the journal. Schedule the therapy session. Set the boundary. Say the prayer. Take the walk.
You may not see the harvest yet, but God multiplies movement. He blesses every faithful step you take.
So today, let’s stop watching the wind — and start sowing the seed. ✨
