Your BREAKTHROUGH...

Your BREAKTHROUGH~

“We must be able to say NO to ourselves in the name of a higher YES.”

— Abraham Joshua Heschel

Every breakthrough in life comes down to two movements:

Stopping what no longer serves you, and starting what you’ve been putting off.

Too much stopping and you shrink.

Too much starting without clarity and you burn out.

But the right dose of each? That’s where transformation lives.

The difference between stuck and fulfilled often comes down to one decision:

Will you say YES to the invitation in front of you?

Not the loud, glamorous, attention-grabbing invitations—

but the quiet, soul-shaping ones.

The ones that call you to lead. To risk. To grow. To serve.

To step into the unknown and be needed in work that matters.

We rarely say YES to these invitations.

We can hesitate because the YES offends our need to play it safe, to be chosen, and to handle our more “urgent” priorities.

If your life is run by the need for immediate gratification, it’s incredibly difficult to say YES to anything you didn’t plan for—especially if it stretches you.

And this warning hits home:

“As we make our world smaller by saying no, it gets even easier to be alone with our thoughts, to tend to the garden of our fears and imagined inadequacies.”

Read that again.

When we say NO to the real opportunities—the ones that require vulnerability, faith, and growth—we:

Close doors we were meant to walk through

Stay small in the name of safety

Turn up the volume on the noise in our heads

But a YES—when it’s the right one—isn’t just a decision.

It’s a declaration.

A YES says: I’m in. I’ll grow. I’ll risk. I’ll trust God with the outcome.

“YES is an invitation to the REST OF THE WORLD—an invitation to be needed.”

So yes, it’s hard.

Yes, it might feel awkward.

But say YES anyway.

Say NO to the temporary pull of comfort and YES to the call that pulls you forward.

This might be the moment where your life pivots.
