One day you’re going to realize that the season you thought was only taking things from you was also introducing you to yourself. To stronger boundaries, deeper self-trust, a softer heart, and a version of you who no longer needs to abandon herself to be loved.
God: Wait until you see who you’re about to become.
You: What do you mean?
God: The version of you that’s about to emerge from this season is unlike anyone you’ve ever been. She’s softer where she used to be hard. Stronger where she used to be afraid. Clearer about what she wants. Surer of her worth.
You: I don’t feel like I’m becoming anyone new.
She walks away from what doesn’t serve her
Jacqueline Whitney
God: That’s because growth is happening underneath the surface. You can’t always see it while you’re in it. But I see her. The woman you’re growing into. And she’s incredible.
You: What is she like?
God: She doesn’t apologize for taking up space. She doesn’t shrink to make others comfortable. She trusts her gut. She walks away from what doesn’t serve her. She receives love without sabotaging it. She believes me when I tell her she’s worth it.
You: When will I meet her?
God: You’re closer than you think. Keep showing up. Keep choosing yourself. Keep trusting the process. She’s almost here.
