Son, I want to make something clear, since this is often misunderstood.

Faith isn’t about being passive. It’s about believing in things you can’t see. Patience doesn’t mean standing still. It means getting ready.

Believing something is meant to be doesn’t mean you just wait for life to happen. It means you keep moving forward with purpose, even if you can’t see exactly how things will work out.

This is true in both love and business.

If you feel drawn to someone in a way that stays steady over time, you don’t ignore it out of fear. You show up. You speak honestly. You take the risk of being known—respectfully, thoughtfully, and with courage. Waiting decades doesn’t mean doing nothing. It means choosing them again and again through your actions, even when timing isn’t aligned yet.

The same goes for business. Opportunities don’t come to those who hesitate. They come to those who prepare and take action. You don’t get clarity or perfection before you start; you find it by stepping in, making the call, starting the project, and committing to a path while adjusting along the way.

This is the balance I want you to see:
You can be both patient and decisive.
You can trust God and still take action. So don’t mistake faith for doing nothing.
You can wait for what’s meant for you.

If something is truly ordained, your steps toward it won’t feel frantic—they’ll feel steady. Not rushed. Not reckless. Purposeful. Peaceful.

Both love and business opportunity take courage. Not the dramatic kind, but steady, disciplined courage. The kind that quietly shows up and keeps moving forward.

Take the step with integrity. Make the call. Speak the truth. Build what you set out to build. Build what is ordained.

God opens doors, but you still have to walk through them.
