When Will My Breakthrough Come?
When will my breakthrough come?
Have you ever asked yourself this? This is a question I’ve found myself asking more and more lately. As humans, we all have dreams and hopes for our lives. Whether that be starting a new career, moving to a new place, starting a family, etc. Our dreams and hopes are what make life exciting. God puts these dreams and visions into our heart for a reason, am I right? He wants to give us all these good things. However, as you and I both know, His timing doesn’t always align with our timing. It can be hard to wait. At times it even might feel like our “journey” is never-ending.
Something, I’ve been struggling with lately are my career aspirations. I know what I want to do, but I’m having a hard time getting there. At times, I feel stuck or discouraged because I feel like my breakthrough will never come. I’m an anxious person by nature, and I do worry a lot about the logistics of everything. Change is a scary thing, and sometimes I think it holds me back. Being 33 weeks pregnant, my mind has been on making sure I can provide for our little one. The last thing I want to do is jump ship and not be able to provide for my family. I think fear of the unknown has led me to not trusting God fully with my heart. And if I’m being honest, there have been times I’ve felt like my prayers have gone unanswered. However, He hears them. He’s not trying to punish me, even if it may feel like it at times. Instead, he’s testing my faith. Waiting is the hardest part. No one ever said it was easy. His timing is perfect, and I’ve had to remind myself on many occasions that He is using this time to prepare me for what’s to come. He knows better than I do what I’m ready and not ready for. And when the time comes, I believe that He is going to reveal the opportunity I’ve been praying/waiting for.
I recently saw on social media an old coworker of mine is expecting a little one later this year. It was revealed in their announcement that their journey in getting pregnant hadn’t been easy. I don’t know how long they had been trying for, but it no doubt tested their faith. To see their prayers answered is encouraging, and I am so excited for them! It was a great reminder that God is good and he will fulfill His promises He makes to us.
With all that being said, I hope this encourages you if you are waiting on a dream to manifest. As hard as it is to see others dreams coming true, may it be a reminder to you that your time will also come and that you are not alone. Trust in God, be patient, and He will see you through.
Thanks for reading friends.
