When God Goes Quiet: What He’s Been Teaching Me in the Silence
Share
Sometimes, God goes quiet.
Not because He’s distant.
Not because He’s done with you.
But because He’s working—on your heart, on your healing, on your surrender.
That’s where I’ve been.
The last few weeks have been heavy in a quiet kind of way. I kept asking God questions like:
"When will things shift?"
"Why does it still feel like I’m stuck?"
"Where is the breakthrough I’ve been praying for?"
And His answer wasn’t loud… it was simple:
“You’re still holding on to things I asked you to release.”
Whew.
I realized I was gripping pride, fear, control, even some timelines I had set for myself. And I had to lay it all down again. Because full surrender isn’t a one-time thing—it’s daily. Sometimes, moment by moment.
Healing in the Hidden
I want to remind you, sis—
Healing isn’t always about taking huge leaps.
Sometimes it’s about sitting still, letting God speak, and letting yourself feel.
Letting yourself admit that you’re tired.
That you’re carrying things you never should’ve had to hold.
That you’re grieving things you never talk about.
That you’re scared to let go because at least this pain is familiar.
But you can release it. You must release it.
Because what’s next for you?
Requires room.
Requires peace.
Requires trust.
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3
That’s not just a scripture—it’s a promise.
Let’s Build This Community Together
I’ve been thinking a lot about how I show up here, too.
And I want this blog, this space, this movement—to feel like home.
So tell me:
🟡 What kind of content would bless you in this season?
🟡 What do you need more of in your walk?
🟡 How can I serve you better?
Drop a comment, message me, or email me. I really do listen. I want this to be more than content. I want this to be community.
What’s Next?
Starting next week, I’m sending out weekly encouragement—emails, blogs, devotionals—to remind you that you’re not alone in this.
And if you’ve been needing more support, 1:1 mentoring is back July 1st.
The Breakthrough Mentoring package is built for women who are ready to stop surviving and start healing for real.
