"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." – African Proverb
In my early 20s, I walked alone—not by choice, but because deep healing required it. No real friends, just me and God. The solitude was painful cause I wasn't used to it but in it, I grew deep roots in Him. And as I changed, so did everything around me. Favor followed, doors opened, and life aligned.
The past tried to pull me back—old desires. But I had outgrown them. Healing rewires you. What once felt important no longer mattered. Instead, I began attracting what was truly meant for me as I showed up with a new lens and ultimately, a newfound sense of identity.
One is not better than the other. I’ve learned it's important to have both—solitude and community—but the key is discerning your season too. There’s a time to be alone and let God do the deep work, and a time to walk with others and build. Rushing ahead without healing leads to shallow connections. But staying isolated too long can also stunt your growth, and be quite spiritually dangerous. We are wired to exist in community after all. Wisdom is knowing when to embrace each. And it doesn't have to be black and white, either or.
If you’re being called to the secret place with Him, lean in—He's shaping you. If you’re in community, build with the right people and also lean in, because He's also shaping you. Understanding your season + the right priorities = unstoppable growth. 💥
