Seven years ago, I was fired from a job I truly thought would be my forever.
At the time, I couldn’t see what God was doing. I just knew a door I thought was secure had closed.
But God had other plans.
What felt like rejection became redirection. What felt like an ending became an invitation to step into territory I may have never explored if I had remained comfortable behind those four walls.
Today, I’m building businesses, developing leaders, educating people, creating spaces, sharing stories, and reaching people I never could have reached from that desk.
And I understand something now that I didn’t fully understand then:
Ministry is in me.
It may not always look like a pulpit. Sometimes ministry looks like encouraging someone not to quit. Teaching someone how to build. Helping a family become a homeowner. Creating opportunities. Sharing what I’ve learned. Using my voice. Making room for somebody else.
Seven years later, I can look back at the door that closed and say, thank You, God.
Because sometimes what you thought was supposed to be your forever was only preparation for where He was actually sending you.
And I have a feeling…I’m just getting started. 🙏🏾❤️
