There comes a moment when God whispers, “It’s time to move forward,” and you realise that saying yes to the life He has for you will cost you the one you’ve been clinging to.

It will cost you your comfort zone — the familiar patterns that once felt safe but now feel too small.

It will cost you your sense of direction — because faith often asks you to step before you see.

It will cost you relationships and friendships — some will drift, some will break, and some will reveal they were never truly aligned with where God is leading you.

It will cost you being liked, even being understood — because not everyone will celebrate the transformation taking place in you.

📖 "For we walk by faith, not by sight." — 2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV)

Yet, in losing these things, you will discover what was never meant to stay.

You will find the ones who truly see you — not just the version of you that fit their comfort, but the person God has been patiently calling forth.

You will trade being liked for being loved.

You will trade being understood for being known.

You will step away from what was built for who you no longer are, and into the space where His grace fits you perfectly.

Let it go. Not as an act of loss, but as an act of faith. Because the other side holds the people, places, and purpose you were made for all along.

Lord, give me the courage to release what no longer carries Your breath, so I can walk freely into what You have prepared for me. Help me trust that what is meant for me will meet me on the other side of obedience. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

You are not losing — you are making room.
