🪶Video 93 **What I’ve Learned This Past Year Walking With Jesus** Put in a different way!

 

🪶 **What I’ve Learned This Past Year Walking With Jesus**

I didn’t set out to do this.

About a year ago, I just started writing…

trying to understand things… trying to make sense of what I had always believed.

One blog turned into another.

And before I knew it, there were hundreds.

But somewhere along the way… something changed.

This stopped being about figuring things out.

👉 And it became about walking with Him.

So I just want to write this simple.

Not to teach.

Not to prove anything.

Just to share what I’ve actually learned.

Maybe it helps someone.

Maybe it doesn’t.

But this is real for me.

## 🪶 **Hearing Him**

I used to look everywhere else for answers… until I learned to be still.

The Spirit speaks quieter than I expected—but clearer than anything else.

Sometimes the problem isn’t that God isn’t speaking… it’s that I’m too loud inside.

The more I listen inward, the less confusing things become.

Hearing Him didn’t come from effort—it came from slowing down.

---

## 🪶 **Surrender**

The biggest changes in me didn’t come from trying harder… they came from letting go.

I didn’t find peace by fixing everything—I found it by releasing it.

Surrender felt like losing control… until I realized it was where peace lived.

God didn’t ask me to carry it better—He asked me to give it to Him.

Letting go wasn’t weakness—it was the doorway.

---

## 🪶 **Repentance**

Real repentance has felt more like relief than punishment.

The moment I stopped defending myself… things started to change.

God showed me my weaknesses gently, not to shame me, but to free me.

Repentance wasn’t about proving I was sorry—it was about becoming new.

I thought repentance would hurt… but it actually healed.

---

## 🪶 **Knowing Christ**

It’s easier to follow a system than to actually know Him.

I knew about Him long before I started to know Him.

Everything changed when I stopped studying Him… and started walking with Him.

He became real to me when I stopped keeping Him at a distance.

Knowing Him is different than knowing about Him.

---

## 🪶 **Structure vs Relationship**

It’s easy to measure behavior… harder to recognize transformation.

Following rules can look like growth… even when the heart hasn’t changed.

I spent years doing things right… without becoming different.

Structure can guide you—but it can’t replace Him.

At some point, it becomes personal—or it stays surface-level.

---

## 🪶 **The Holy Ghost**

The Spirit doesn’t force—it invites.

The more I trusted the Spirit, the less I needed everything explained.

Clarity came when I stopped overthinking and started listening.

The Holy Ghost didn’t complicate things—He simplified them.

The guidance was always there… I just learned to notice it.

---

## 🪶 **Fear vs Peace**

Fear always made things louder—peace made them clearer.

I used to move because I was afraid… now I move because I feel peace.

Pressure never came from Him—peace always did.

When I feel rushed, it’s usually not Him.

Peace became my signal… not urgency.

---

## 🪶 **Preparation**

Preparation feels less like doing everything right… and more like becoming someone different.

I thought I needed to be perfect—turns out I needed to be willing.

God isn’t preparing perfect people—He’s preparing willing hearts.

Readiness is quieter than I expected.

Preparation happens inside long before anything changes outside.

---

## 🪶 **The Temple & Ordinances**

I’m starting to see ordinances as invitations… not finish lines.

The symbol matters less if I miss what it’s pointing to.

What matters most isn’t what I do there—it’s what I become after.

The outward act only matters if something changes inward.

The meaning got deeper when I stopped rushing through it.

---

## 🪶 **Zion (Simple)**

Zion feels less like a place… and more like a people.

It starts quietly—inside hearts, not crowds.

You don’t build Zion by forcing it—you become it.

Unity doesn’t come from agreement—it comes from love.

Zion grows where Christ is actually known.

---

## 🪶 **Daily Walk**

It didn’t happen all at once—it happened one quiet step at a time.

Some days feel small… but they’re not.

Walking with Him became simpler when I stopped trying to make it big.

Consistency mattered more than intensity.

Most of it happened in ordinary moments.

---

## 🪶 **Final Thought**

After everything…

All the study.

All the questions.

All the writing.

It keeps coming back to one thing:

👉 Him.

Not the system.

Not the noise.

Not the pressure.

Just Him.

---

If anything I’ve written this past year has helped…

That’s why I kept going.

And if this helps even one person slow down…

and hear Him a little clearer…

Then it was worth it.
