The Story You Were Born to Write Will Not Abandon You
Even if you’ve walked away from it, it’s still waiting for you.
When You Feel Like You’ve Missed Your Moment
You meant to finish it last year.
Then you said you’d get back to it after the holidays.
Then the new year came… and the notebook stayed closed.
Now it’s June. And somewhere in the back of your mind, a quiet voice whispers:
“Maybe I missed it. Maybe the moment has passed.”
You start to wonder:
Is it too late to finish?
Has the inspiration dried up?
Did I mess up my chance to do this right?
And that fear—of being too far behind—starts to sound a lot like permission to give up.
But hear me, friend:
Your story hasn’t abandoned you.
t’s still here.
And it’s still yours to finish.
God’s Timing Is Not Hustle Culture’s Timeline
We live in a world obsessed with “right now.”
Immediate results. Quick wins. Constant forward motion.
But holy things take time.
And the story you’ve been called to tell? It’s a holy thing.
God’s not rushing you. He’s refining you.
You’re not late.
You’re not lazy.
You’re becoming—through every pause, every return, every step toward the page.
The calling hasn’t lifted.
The spark hasn’t died.
And the story hasn’t let go of you for a reason.
I Know What It’s Like to Walk Away
There was a season when I put down a story that mattered to me—convinced I’d failed it.
I felt like I had missed the window.
The momentum was gone.
The words felt foreign.
But then, slowly, God began stirring something in me again. Not pressure. Not guilt.
Just a quiet invitation to return.
And when I did?
The story was right there, waiting.
It hadn’t abandoned me—it had been becoming in the background.
And I wasn’t the same writer I was when I first started—I was stronger, wiser, and more surrendered.
That story?
It turned into one of the most meaningful projects I’ve ever finished.
What If You Picked It Back Up?
You don’t need to finish the book this week.
You don’t need to “catch up” on all the time you think you lost.
You just need to say yes again.
Here’s a gentle way to begin:
Your Recommitment Practice:
Find your old draft or notebook. Read the first 1–2 pages—not to edit, but to remember.
Then, write a one-paragraph letter to your story:
“I’m sorry I left you. I’m back now. Let’s begin again—with grace.”Schedule one 30-minute writing window this week. Let it be sacred.
Let your return be soft. Let it be holy. Let it be enough.
