God Is Real. God Is With Me. God Is Working. ✨🙏
Just recently, I was watching an episode of School of Hard Knocks on YouTube, this particular episode: Why Buy a Business Instead of Starting One. The host was interviewing a successful Black tech entrepreneur who had made millions by buying, growing and then selling companies.
At one point in the interview, the host asked him a simple but powerful question:
“Do you believe in God?”
Without hesitation, he said yes—and then shared a story that moved me to tears.
✨ When God Speaks Loudest in the Quiet
He said that years ago (when he was still young), when he was broke and struggling, he cried himself to sleep one night asking,
“God, are You even real? Or are You just like Santa Claus?”
The next morning, something incredible happened.
As he was walking to work, a stranger came up to him—completely unprompted—and said:
“God loves you. He’s real. And He wanted me to tell you that.”
Right then and there, his life changed.
From that moment on, he believed.
And right there, watching from my couch—I started crying.
Because I know… God is working in my life too. 🙏
💛 His Presence in My Story
Lately, I’ve felt Papa God gently—yet firmly—pushing me to step into something greater.
To believe bigger.
To prepare for the kind of life and mission I’ve only dreamed of…
So that I can serve Him in a bigger way.
And I know—He gave me my partner, Bong, as His instrument.
Through his strength, love, and support, and all his Bible teachings (to me), my eyes have opened wider to everything God is doing in our lives.
We are His instruments. And sometimes, He uses the people closest to us to remind us of that.
🏡 A Dream Coming True
Yesterday, something happened that still makes me tear up as I write this.
Before I forget, “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!”
We bought a new house.
Yes—the house I’ve been dreaming about. The one I imagined but never thought would happen this soon.
And here’s the amazing (and slightly scary) part:
We don’t even have the full money to pay for it yet. 😅
But the process was unbelievably smooth. No resistance. No chaos. Just calm clarity.
It was as if God was moving every piece into place, saying:
“I’ve got this. Just trust Me.”
😭 When Trust Feels Bigger Than Fear
Right now, I’m crying again—this time with joy and humility.
Not because I’m afraid… but because it’s so overwhelming to feel this kind of trust from God.
It’s as if He’s whispering,
“I am here. Do not be afraid. All your dreams and wishes—I will make them come true.”
Even my wildest dream—of one day building a Home for the Aged, a place of love, rest, and dignity—
I believe with all my heart that He will make that happen, too.
🌱 From Fear to Faith
This new season feels big. And yes, a little scary.
But more than anything, it feels sacred.
Because I know…
I am not walking into it alone.
We are in His plan.
We are in His hands.
💬 Reflection (For You😉)
Have you ever experienced a moment that felt so perfectly aligned, you knew it was God?
What dreams has He placed on your heart that still feel impossible?
📌 Today, I invite you to:
- Take a quiet moment to reflect on a time God moved in your life.
- Write it down. Share it with someone.
- Or simply whisper, “Thank You, Lord”—for working, even when we don’t see it yet.
Because He is real.
He is with us.
And He is working—even now.
With a grateful heart,
Tita Maya 💛
