As I reflect on my journey and strive to live life to the fullest, one truth stands above all: God has brought me this far.
From childhood, I can recall countless moments when His hand saved and protected me. Times when I was young, naive, and convinced I knew best—yet He shielded me from situations that could have caused harm.
I remember dreaming of attending college without knowing how it would ever be possible. But God made a way. Scholarships and opportunities came into my life when I least expected them, opening doors I could never have unlocked on my own.
I think about when I wanted to start an events business, clueless about where to begin. I’ll never forget those sleepless nights, overwhelmed with doubt, praying for direction. Not only did the business come to life, but it also thrived—making the impact I had always envisioned.
I think about the day He brought my wife into my life. It wasn’t just love at first sight; it was clarity. I knew she was my partner, my rock. Together, He blessed us with our little princess—a tangible reminder of His grace and love.
One story that will always stay with me is the time we were in a car accident a few years ago. It was a split second of chaos that could have changed everything, but somehow we walked away with nothing but minor scratches. But God. That moment reminds me daily that He is our protector, even in the storms we don’t see coming.
As I look at my family today—how He has provided for and protected us—I’m overwhelmed with gratitude.
This is my thank-you post. A moment to acknowledge that I am not worthy of all His blessings, yet He continues to show up in my life.
“The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and He helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise Him.” – Psalm 28:7
Thank you, God. For everything. 🙏🏾
