I Had No Idea How

I didn’t know how to begin…
but I knew I had to try.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart…” — Proverbs 3:5–6

Once that thought settled in… I knew I couldn’t ignore it.

But I also knew something else.

I had no idea how to begin.

I had never written a book.
I didn’t know where to start.
I didn’t know what tools to use or what the process looked like.

It all felt unfamiliar.

Even overwhelming.

There were moments when I questioned whether I should even try.

But the thought didn’t go away.

So instead of waiting until I understood everything…
I took a step anyway.

Not a big step.

Just a small one.

And then another.

I’m learning that you don’t have to understand everything
to begin something.

Sometimes you just have to trust…
and take the first step.
