Before your next chapter becomes your reality, it often exists first in Heaven’s hands. While you’re wondering what’s taking so long, God is still writing, refining, and preparing pages you haven’t seen yet. Every delay, every closed door, and every unanswered question may be making room for a story better than the one you would have written yourself. These are a few glimpses into what Heaven’s drafts for your next chapter might look like.
The chapter where she stops shrinking. Where she takes up space without apologizing.
– Jacqueline Whitney
Draft 1:
The chapter where she finally exhales. Where she stops bracing for the worst. Where she lets a good thing be good without waiting for the cost.
Draft 2:
The chapter where the right people arrive. Where she has to learn how to receive love that doesn’t require performance.
Draft 3:
The chapter where the wait makes sense. Where she looks back at every closed door and finally understands.
Draft 4:
The chapter where she stops shrinking. Where she takes up space without apologizing.
Draft 5:
The chapter where she finally believes me. Where she stops second-guessing what I’ve been telling her all along.
