When You’re Waiting for Momentum

January can feel slow. The excitement fades, and progress feels barely measurable. But that’s often where God does His best work — in the unseen, steady start.

The world celebrates instant results; God values faithful roots. Momentum grows quietly before it’s visible.

So instead of forcing movement, focus on faithfulness. Start the small habit. Pray the simple prayer. Take the next step. Growth will come, but patience prepares the soil.

Remember: slow progress isn’t failure — it’s formation.

Reflection questions:

  • What area of life feels slow to move forward right now?

  • How can you practice patience in your current pace?

  • What “small beginning” could God be rejoicing over today?
