When the New Comes Knocking
Affirmation : I honor the process
When we’re called to do something new—whether through prayer, intention, or a quiet whisper from within—what’s the first thing we focus on?
For many of us, it’s what we don’t have.
What we can’t do.
What must be perfect before we begin.
We start scanning for certainty, for guarantees, for ease. We want the path to unfold exactly how we imagined it—smooth, predictable, affirming. And when it doesn’t, fear creeps in. Doubt takes the mic. We start rehearsing reasons to delay, to shrink, to wait for “the right time.”
But here’s what I’ve learned:
Anything new comes with a process.
And that process will ask something of you.
It might ask for discomfort.
It will definitely ask for discipline.
It may ask you to stretch, to stumble, to start again.
There is no shortcut to transformation. If I want to get healthy, I have to move my body. If I want to learn Spanish, I have to practice. If I want to grow—spiritually, professionally, personally—I have to show up for the work.
And yes, sometimes that work is messy.
Sometimes it’s not how I pictured it.
Sometimes it feels like I’m walking uphill with no map.
But once I accepted that the process is part of the gift, my eyes opened. The dream doesn’t come fully formed. The talent doesn’t unfold without tending. The spark needs fuel. And that fuel is your effort, your belief, your willingness to keep going—one step at a time.
So if you’ve been given the vision, the calling, the nudge—trust it.
Even if it’s hard.
Even if it’s new.
Even if it doesn’t come wrapped in ease.
You got this.
Start where you are.
Let the process shape you.
And remember: the work is not punishment. It’s preparation.
Peace and Blessings
