I Almost Gave Up.
There was a season where discouragement had a permanent seat in my life.
Rejection after rejection.
Whispers of jealousy from people I least expected.
Moments where quitting felt easier than continuing.
I won't lie — I thought about walking away from my career completely.
But then I remembered Nehemiah 6:9:
"For they all made us afraid, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work, that it be not done. Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands."
Nehemiah was rebuilding a wall. People mocked him. Threatened him. Tried every trick to distract him and make him quit.
But he didn't ask God to remove his enemies.
He asked God to strengthen his hands.
That's exactly where I found myself.
I stopped asking, "Why is this happening to me?"
And started praying, "God, strengthen my hands to keep building."
So today, I'm not giving up. I'm taking the bull by the horn — more determined than ever to succeed, not despite the discouragement, but through it.
If you're in a season of rejection, jealousy, or feeling unseen — this is your sign. Your hands were made strong for this work. Keep building.
