Becoming the Author of What Comes Next
At some point in the healing journey, reflection turns into movement.
Stillness gives way to stirring.
Something inside whispers, “It’s time.”
Creating Opportunities is the practice of partnering with your becoming.
It is recognizing the gifts God placed in you and using them to shape the life you desire.
You are not here to merely survive transitions.
You are here to rise through them.
Vision: Looking Beyond What You See
Every opportunity begins with vision—
not external vision,
but inner sight.
Ask yourself:
“What am I longing for?”
“What does my spirit know is possible?”
“Where is God nudging me?”
When you allow yourself to desire, you ignite possibility.
Desire is the language of destiny.
Gifts, Talents, Wisdom: Your Spiritual Tools
Your story, your strengths, your lived experience—these are not accidents.
They are resources.
Opportunities rise from what you carry, not what you chase.
Whether you want peace, income, creativity, partnership, stability, or expansion, the seed is already in you.
Taking the First Step
You do not need to see the entire path.
Begin with one small action aligned with truth.
One step becomes momentum.
Momentum becomes change.
And change becomes a life that mirrors your essence.
Life Design: Creating What You Long For
Opportunity is not only professional.
It is personal, relational, spiritual.
It is the practice of designing a life that reflects who you are—not who you were taught to be.
Creating opportunities means honoring the wisdom inside you:
“You are allowed to have a life that feels like you.”
Benediction
May courage rise in you like breath.
May your gifts make room for the life you desire.
And may opportunity meet you at every step you take toward becoming.
