How do you navigate rejection from jobs where your passions would have been on display?
Living in a place of peace comes more from surrendering to childlike faith than reasoning. Logic will tell you to use your skills and passions to strive for success, but you have to trust God that in rejection, even rejection from the things that appear to be good, you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

How can you bring balance to tension?
You don’t need to know the full picture, but you can rest by stewarding what you have really well (not in a place of striving) and be hopeful that God will open the right doors at the right time. God is faithful to bring His desire for you and when He does, He will put grace behind it.

How can you steward what you have?
What do you have to steward?
What are the ordinary moments in your day that God wants to mark as holy?
Who is a person in your everyday life that you’ve taken for granted? How can you extravagantly bless or encourage them?

How can you dream without getting caught up in disappointment?
Dream from a place of rest.
Ask God to talk to you about your dreams.
Are your dreams attached to what is in your hands RIGHT NOW?

When you feel stuck in your job, don’t undervalue God’s faithfulness.
When you’re serving someone else’s mission, ask God to give you a passion for them and your work for them.
When doors close, trust that He will open the right door at the right time.
