run for the bus.

from Highly Favored

In this episode I talk about the idea of “running for the bus” inspired by Kerry Washington, where she talked about praying for the bus and then actually running for it.This conversation is about the difference between wanting something and participating in it. I reflect on how I spent a long time waiting for change while staying mostly still, and how that created frustration and disappointment.I talk about faith as something active rather than passive, and about the responsibility we have to meet God with what we are asking for. I share a story about running a 5k after years of avoiding it, and how much of that experience was really about letting myself be seen trying, being seen uncomfortable, being seen imperfect, and continuing anyway.This episode is about ego, hesitation, self preservation, and the quiet ways we opt out of our own lives. It is also about choosing to engage even when it feels awkward or uncertain.If you are manifesting something new in your life, this is an invitation to actively participate in it.
