When it rains, it pours.
The week I got 90 BAGELS PRE-ORDERED, BOTH of my stand mixers decided to break.
Literally. BOTH.😭
And here’s the kicker: I was prepping 45 extra bagels for a BIBLE STUDY. I was making bagels for a room full of godly women when my mixers decided they had ENOUGH.
I mean… COME ON. You know the Lord is at work when the enemy gets this bothered. Maybe making bagels for women gathering to pray, study God’s Word, and encourage one another upset the enemy a little bit. 😂
I wasn’t discouraged by God—I was more annoyed that the enemy thought this little hiccup was going to send me over the edge. Nice try.😂 A bump in the road does not mean you’re on the wrong road. Sometimes what we’re called to do won’t be easy, and obedience looks like figuring things out when the plan falls apart.
Romans 5:3-4 says, “Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,”
And Galatians 6:9 says, “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.”
So I’m not giving up. I’m going to figure out these mixers, make these 90 bagels, and keep learning, growing, and showing up.
Because the devil is a LIAR, a do**us, and a doo doo head.😂
Two broken mixers don’t get to convince me that I wasn’t meant to do this.
If you’re in a season where everything seems to be going wrong right after you took a step of faith, KEEP GOING. Don’t let one hard chapter convince you that you chose the wrong story.
Keep pushing. Keep praying. Keep trusting. Keep going.
God is still in it. 🙏🏼🥯
P.S. By the Grace of God and my amazing supportive husband, we have a new mixer on the way. Those who have pre-ordered don’t you fret! You will be getting your bagels this weekend💛🫶🏼
