Yvette Walker, a writer and journalist, discusses the importance of finding quiet time and listening to God's voice. She reflects on how the pandemic brought unexpected moments of silence into her life and allowed her to hear things she hadn't noticed before, like the sound of birds. Yvette believes in paying attention to the little things and seeing them as meaningful, rather than mere coincidences. She shares a personal experience of forgetting a bag and discovering two letters she had written for encouragement. This incident made her realize that sometimes God orchestrates small detours to guide us towards unexpected opportunities. Yvette emphasizes the need to trust God's plan and assures that we cannot truly screw it up, even though we may sometimes delay it. She encourages others to be open to God's prompting and find joy in discovering His presence in everyday life.
About Yvette Walker: positivelyjoy.com
Hello! I’m Yvette Babs Walker, host of a faith-based podcast and ministry, Positively Joy. In living my true, authentic self, I have discovered my purpose -- and despite having a great career, it's not rising to the boardroom, or having kids. My purpose is to share my practical insights on receiving God's joy with women, and leaving them feeling recognized, empowered and understood! I'm also a former journalist and I love to write. I have several books available on Amazon: a new book of devotions, "Whispering in His Ear," with a companion study guide, and a book of poetry called "Lyrics from my Faith." I also have a book on the politics of hair and beauty, "Hair Goddess." My author page is https://amzn.to/3EWBrMd Find out more about me at positivelyjoy.com
