Happy FriYAYYYYY!

💎This Week’s #JOYGem 💎

You’re not forgotten. You’re being preparing for something greater than you imagined!

​

Hey Reader,

​

Have you ever felt like you’re doing everything right… but God still hasn’t moved?

Same.

I know what it’s like to pray, prepare, stay faithful—and still feel like you’re sitting in the waiting room, wondering if your name will ever be called.

But in this week’s Bible study, I was reminded of something powerful:

Just because God isn’t moving doesn’t mean He isn’t working.
And what feels like a delay may be divine protection.

We’re exploring Genesis 8–9, where Noah waits patiently on the ark until God gives him the green light to step into new territory.

Then we jump into Matthew 4, where Jesus launches His ministry after a quiet season of preparation—and begins calling His first disciples.

One story is about waiting.
The other is about moving.
But both are about alignment.
