Let Good Enough Be Good Enough: Releasing the Rush and Trusting the Timing

I always had a desire to use social platforms as a way to generate income for my family.
The vision was there! Which was to create content, share meaningful moments, build community, and in turn, build something that could bless our finances too. It wasn’t about chasing fame. It was about creating purpose and provision from something I genuinely cared about.

And I tried.
So many times.
I started and stopped. Rebranded, relaunched, redirected. I dabbled in different niches, studied strategies, watched other people rise and wondered what I was doing wrong.

But deep down, I think the biggest reason it never seemed to stick was this:
I felt torn about sharing my life with strangers.

That tension pulled at me every time I posted. It was the struggle of wanting to be real, but not wanting to be exposed.
Wanting to connect, but fearing judgment.
Wanting to grow, but also protect the sacredness of my life offline.

It created this constant dilemma: How do I build something honest and meaningful without sacrificing my peace or privacy in the process?
And when the money didn’t come as quickly as I hoped, the pressure started to mount. It felt like I had to make it happen now and that if I didn’t capitalize on every moment, I was falling behind. I started measuring my value in likes, my momentum in followers, and my faith in analytics.

But then one day, I felt God ask me a simple question:
“Do you trust Me with the timing?”

It stopped me in my tracks.
Because the truth is that I do need the income and I do want this to work.
But I also believe I wasn’t called to build something that burns me out or strips me of joy in the process.

And when I finally said, “Okay, God, I’ll show up the way You ask me to, and trust You with the results,” everything changed.
Not overnight. Not in follower counts or brand deals.
But in my spirit. In my posture. In my peace.

I started letting good enough be good enough.
Not as a cop-out. Not as an excuse. But as a quiet surrender and a declaration that I will show up with heart and intention, and let God make the difference.

Because He will.

So if you're in the middle of this same tension, between ambition and authenticity, between desire and discouragement, I hope you hear this:

You’re not behind.
You’re not too late.
And you’re not failing if it’s not all happening fast.

Sometimes, good enough really is good enough.
Especially when you're building something holy, not just something viral.

Keep showing up.
Keep honoring the vision.
And let the rest unfold in His time.

Truthfully though,…“What’s the rush?”

I know that as long as I keep showing up in the way God is asking me to and as long as I’m putting in honest effort, staying aligned with my purpose, and moving with intention that I can rest in knowing He will make the difference.
The growth, the opportunities, and the money, they’ll come when they’re supposed to.

So if you’re in a season where it feels like you’re behind, or like it’s all taking too long…
Take a breath.
You’re not late.
You’re not failing.
You’re being formed.

Keep showing up.
Keep giving it your best.
And then let God do what only He can do.
