I used to come to God from a place of fear, praying like everything was on the verge of falling apart. But everything shifted when I truly understood that I don’t visit His presence, I live in it. I’m seated with Christ, carried by Him, surrounded by Him, and that changed the entire way I pray.

Now my prayers start with worship, quieting my spirit, giving thanks, and leaning in to hear what Jesus and the Holy Spirit are already speaking over my life. Every morning I remind myself: he already sees what’s ahead. He’s preparing me for what I can’t yet see.

The places where I used to struggle with doubt are filling up with trust. Peace, real peace, has become the rhythm I walk in.

And honestly? I’m watching God show up in ways that remind me daily, “I’ve already taken care of this. Just stay close and watch what I do.”

I’m learning how to partner with Him instead of panic before Him, and it’s changing everything.

Wherever you are today, I’m honored to walk alongside you as we learn to trust His presence more than our worries.

I pray these words remind you that He’s closer, kinder, and more faithful than you’ve ever imagined.

With love and and faith, Julie
