Still Becoming
I’m still becoming the best version of myself.
Not the flawless version.
Not the rushed version.
But the truer version.
I’m learning to trust God—not just with the outcome, but with the timing.
And that part has been harder than I expected.
I spent years wanting microwave answers—quick fixes, instant clarity, immediate relief.
But God doesn’t work like that.
His timing is more like a slow cooker.
He takes His time.
He allows things to simmer.
He lets layers soften, flavors deepen, and what’s unfinished mature at its own pace.
And if I’m honest, waiting stretches me.
I’m impatient by nature.
I grow weary in the in-between.
I wrestle with the silence and wonder if anything is really happening.
But becoming doesn’t happen in a rush.
It happens in the waiting.
In the trusting.
In the quiet obedience when nothing looks different yet.
I’m learning that God is just as present in the process as He is in the promise.
And even when I feel stuck, delayed, or unsure—I am still becoming.
Not behind.
Not forgotten.
Just becoming.
Still becoming.
Reflection Question
Where am I struggling to trust God’s timing—and what would it look like to surrender the pace?
