Dear Little Girl...God Will Meet You Where You Are

Dear Little Girl,

I wrote this a few months ago, back when the weight in my chest felt heavier than my faith.
When I was juggling clients, classes, a show—and barely holding it all together.

Reading it now, with a little more clarity and a whole lot more peace, I see what I couldn’t fully grasp back then:
God was in the story the whole time.

So if that’s where you are today—still holding your breath between tasks, whispering prayers between tears—

This is for you.

You’re trying so hard to be strong.
To do enough, be enough, stay ahead of it all.
You’re carrying hope for your children, healing for yourself, and heartache that never quite settles down.
And still, you keep going.

But here’s what I need you to hear:

God isn’t asking you to be enough. He’s asking you to let Him be.

Because He’s already in the story—even the overwhelming parts.
Even the parts you’re bargaining through.
Even the parts you think are too messy to matter.

Remember Jacob?
His story is found in Genesis 28.
He was a liar, a trickster, a man running from the fallout of his own mistakes. And that’s exactly where God showed up.

Not after Jacob made amends.
Not when he proved himself worthy.
But right there—in the wilderness, alone, with a rock for a pillow.

God gave him this promise:

“I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go.” (Genesis 28:15)

Jacob didn’t find God because he was holy.
God found him because He is faithful.

And maybe that’s you right now.
You’re not running, exactly, but you're moving fast.
And under all that motion is a quiet plea:

“Please meet me here.”

He will.
He already has.

So today, take the next step—not toward perfection, but toward presence.
Offer your best, not your performance.
And when the weight rises in your chest, breathe and remember:

God’s faithfulness is not dependent on your hustle.
His love is not waiting on your clean-up.
He is with you—right here, right now.

✨ A Question to Journal On:
Where in your life are you bargaining with God instead of trusting Him to meet you exactly as you are?

🙏 A Prayer for the Girl Who’s Carrying Too Much:
Dear God,
Thank You for showing up in the middle of my mess—not when I’ve got it together, but when I’m barely holding on.
Remind me that I don’t have to prove anything. I just have to trust You.
Help me surrender the burdens You never asked me to carry.
Help me give my children, my dreams, my fear, and my failures back to You.
Thank You for being faithful even when I doubt. Even when I run.
You are in this story—every part of it.
Thank You for never leaving.
Amen.

With love,
Worthy
