In this episode of Salty Diaries, we’re diving into the tension between excitement and anxiety that comes with new beginnings. If you’ve been sensing God calling you to something new — but you feel nervous, unqualified, or overwhelmed—this one’s for you.

We unpack the promises in Isaiah 43:19 and Zechariah 4:10, and talk about what it means to step out in faith even when your knees are shaking. You’ll leave encouraged to embrace your “small start,” trust God’s timing, and move forward knowing He rejoices in your obedience, not your perfection.

📖 Key Scriptures:

• Isaiah 43:19 – “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?”
