You didn’t just survive May. You stayed. You trusted. You endured. That counts for more than you think.
God: You made it through May.
You: Barely.
God: Barely still counts. Do you have any idea how strong you had to be to get through that?
The breakthrough you’ve been praying for is closer than you think.
– Jacqueline Whitney
You: It didn’t feel like strength. It felt like survival.
God: Sometimes they’re the same thing. You kept going when everything in you wanted to quit. You trusted me when you couldn’t see the plan. You let go of things you loved because I asked you to. That’s not weakness. That’s faith.
You: Thank you, God. What now?
God: Now you get to see why. June is when things start changing. The doors I closed in May were making room for the ones I’m opening in June. The waiting is almost over. The breakthrough you’ve been praying for is closer than you think.

You: I’m scared to hope again, God.
God: I know. But hope anyway. Because this time, it’s different. You made it through May. Now watch what I do in June.
