The Heart In The Hustle

Some things just happen. There is no explanation…no logical reasoning. My journey networking with people in Nigeria has been quite miraculous.

I know that it is hard to have faith when the deck is stacked against you. To feel that nothing can or will change. To assume that no one really and truly cares about you or your life…much less, wants to be a part of it.

I don’t know where you put your trust or who you pray to..but what I do know, is that finally finding purpose in a long awaited dream is ignition to a fire not easily burnt out.

When God gave me a vision to build a mentoring program for Nigerian youth, it seemed impossible. Finding the right people, the right hearts, and like minds with a passion to match your own is not a common occurrence. Having people on the ground that you can trust and believe in makes a world of difference.

God truly has his hands in this. It is supernatural. Period. So, I dropped all human doubts and reservations and made it my mission to see it through. A calling from God is a blessing and He shows me every day that I am doing the right thing in following it.

Let me say, the right thing does not come without hardships. It does not leave you without stress. It only tests the strength of your faith. How you respond to the challenges you are faced with is a testament to your devotion to His plan.

So what defines a miracle?

The many people throughout Nigeria that I have spent countless hours with already have only increased my passion. I have so much love for the country and the people in it.

This was a miracle.

There is a lot to do. I know the task is massive in scale and I am pushing every day to put things in motion. I am attending events and festivals to meet vendors to support and connecting with organizations and pastors that have a heart for mission work.

I know things take time. I have committed to my purpose. The miracles…they have been constant. Pages and pages of wonder and amazement that will one day be a testimony that I will proudly share. Getting involved in Africa has been enlightening…the country of Nigeria…the people…have changed my world. Every moment feels like home.

My miracle.

I have so many that are anxious to help and be involved that I am speechless. I am investing in people; making a difference one moment at a time. I look to the day when I land in Nigeria and see them face to face. For now, my friends…my family…hold on, keep praying, keep believing, trust God and watch the miracles unfold around you!

To Naija…with love ❤️
