In this episode, I talk about the buried thing many of us have been carrying for years—a calling, gift, or purpose we once recognized but stopped pursuing after disappointment, fear, or silence. I anchor the conversation in Romans 12:2, Jeremiah 29:11, Philippians 1:6, and the parable of the talents to remind you that God’s plan was already in motion before you could see it, and that what He begins, He faithfully finishes. This is especially for anyone who feels like it’s too late, or who has started to believe there’s nothing left in them worth renewing.
I also share personal stories of surviving multiple trucking accidents that should have ended differently, and how looking back helped me see God’s protection as evidence of His authorship over my life. My encouragement is simple: stop treating the burial like the end of the story. Be honest with God about what you’ve been sitting on, what made you hide it, and where fear has kept you frozen. Your job is honesty and openness; God’s job is the rest. If you’re still here, that is not an accident—He isn’t done with you yet.
