Pastor's Corner

 A Pastoral Word from My Heart to Yours

“Blessings to you. I pray all is well—but if it’s not, I pray this word meets you right where you are.”

Hey beloved,

Come close. Just for a moment.

I don’t know everything you’re walking through right now, but I can sense this:

You’ve been carrying more than you’ve been saying.

You’ve been holding it together for everyone else, while quietly wondering when it’ll be your turn for relief…

For healing…

For breakthrough.

You’re tired—but still showing up.

You’re stretched—but still standing.

You’re praying—but wondering how much longer you’ll have to hold on.

And if that’s you, let me say this as your sister in Christ, and as a shepherd who’s walked through some valleys too:

God sees you. He really, really sees you.

Not just the strong you—the real you. The weary you. The tearful you. The “I’m trying, but I’m struggling” you.

And beloved, He’s not disappointed. He’s not distant.

He’s near. Closer than your next breath.

💔 This Isn’t the End—It’s the Stretch

You may feel like you’ve been in a holding pattern.

Like the prayers you whispered months ago are still hanging in the air unanswered.

Like you’re on pause—waiting for heaven to move.

But what feels like delay is often divine preparation.

You’re not stuck. You’re not being punished.

You’re being prepared.

You’re being stretched to carry what you’ve been praying for.

I know the waiting feels long. I know the in-between seasons feel lonely.

But I want to speak this over you with love and truth:

This is not your forever.

You are not forgotten.

You are not overlooked.

And you are not running out of time.

There is still a breakthrough with your name on it.

God is still faithful.

And He has not changed His mind about you.

🗣️ Why I Speak the Word—Even When I Feel Broken

Can I be honest as your pastor?

There are moments I’ve laid my face to the floor and could barely whisper, “God, help me.”

Moments when I had no strength left—but I still spoke the Word anyway.

Because the Word reminds me of what’s true—even when my feelings betray me.

It reminds me of what God promised—even when I can’t see it.

And that’s why I speak over myself daily.

Not because I feel powerful—but because I know where my power comes from.

And I want you to do the same.

Not out of routine—but out of relationship.

Even if your voice trembles… even if your prayer is just a whisper… speak.

Because something happens when you open your mouth in faith.

Your spirit rises. Chains break. And heaven moves.

✨ Speak These Declarations—Let Them Minister to You

These aren’t just words. They are weapons. They are medicine.

They are reminders that your life is not over. God is not silent. And you are not alone.

Say them out loud. Say them tearfully. Say them over and over until your heart catches up.

🕊️ Pastor to Heart: Don’t Quit Here

If you’re reading this with tears in your eyes, wondering if anyone understands the weight you’ve been carrying—

I do.

And more importantly—Jesus does.

So if today you’re tempted to quit…

If today you feel overlooked or forgotten…

Let this be the moment you draw a line in the sand and say:

“I may not have it all figured out, but I refuse to lay down here.”

You were created to rise.

You were built for this moment.

And there is still oil flowing from the places you thought were dry.

I’m praying for you.

I’m standing with you.

And I believe—with everything in me—that this won’t end in defeat.

It’s going to end in glory.

Be blessed, everybody. I love you with the love of Christ.
