Advice of the Century lol

Was talking to someone I kinda consider a mentor in my walk of faith and he basically gave me some of the best advice. He said:

There are times when the Lord calls you to boldly step out and take hold of your destiny, and there are times when God is calling you to hold ground. Right now, He’s calling you to hold ground. Why? Because His way of preparing us for the plans He has for us, is to put us in over our head and teach us to depend on Him, just to hold on and maintain.

You’re doing exactly what you’re supposed to do, and you’re succeeding. All this is preparing you. Take that from someone who grew up in a very messed up family. God will use it all, you can’t be faded.

Ephesians 6:13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

That just blew my mind. The best advice I've recieved in a veeeery long time. You may not be going through the exact same thing as me, but those were very encouraging words. God can and will lead you to what you need to hear/read even if it isn't something you've put out in the public.
Be encouraged :)

In Christ, Allie J
