New Year, Same Jesus, Deeper Questions

New Year, Same Jesus, Deeper Questions


Sis, let’s talk about one question that Jesus asked in the Bible that had me shook.

👉🏽 “What are you looking for?” (John 1:38)

At first, I was like, “Whew, that’s deep,” but then I realized… I wasn’t ready for where this question was about to take me. 😳

So, grab your Bible, a snack (because we don’t do deep convos on an empty stomach 🤣), and let’s unpack this together.


What Are You REALLY Looking For? 🧐

I sat down with this question right before Christmas, just me, Jesus, my Bible, and some snacks.

At first, I thought, “Okay, what am I REALLY trying to discern here?”

✔️ Am I looking for peace?
✔️ Am I asking for relief from my struggles?
✔️ Or is it a deeper relationship with Jesus?

But then came the real kicker…

💡 Why do I even want what I’m asking for?

Why do I want Jesus to take my burdens, fix my mess, or hand me the thing I THINK I need?

That question? It messed me up. 😭

What are you looking for

When I Asked Others...Y'ALL! I wasn't Ready😭

I decided to flip the script and ask my closest people:

👉🏽 “What do YOU think I’m looking for?”

Sis. Their answers humbled me. Some saw me more clearly than I saw myself. Some challenged me in ways I didn’t expect. And some? They exposed areas I hadn’t even admitted to myself.

Then the next question hit me like a Holy Spirit mic drop 🎤💥:

👉🏽 What do I WANT the answer to be?

Am I even looking for God in the little moments—like grocery shopping, random convos, or sitting in traffic?

Or do I only search for Him when I’m knee-deep in Bible study with a cute journal and matching highlighters? 🛒📖😂


The Question That Changed Everything💡

👉🏽 If I was already the person I want to be… what would I be doing?

Sis. This one got me.

Because if I was already the bold, faith-filled, peace-walking woman of God I say I want to be… my actions would reflect that.

And that’s when it clicked—what I’m looking for isn’t a thing.

✔️ It’s a deeper connection with Jesus.
✔️ It’s trusting Him fully.
✔️ It’s following Him, even when it’s uncomfortable.

And guess what? That’s why Jesus asked the question in the first place.

He’s not just the answer—He’s the question.

And if you’re feeling called to go deeper with Jesus while enjoying life, then sis, I want YOU to come on this journey with me. 🌟


Your Challenge: Are Your Ready Beautiful? 🤔

Sis, I want to challenge YOU to do the same:

📝 Ask yourself: What am I looking for?
💬 Ask your people: What do you think I’m looking for?
🙏🏽 Ask Jesus: Lord, show me the truth.

But before you do, ask yourself one last thing:

👉🏽 Are you READY for the answer He’s about to show you?

Because let’s be real… it’s gonna stretch you in ways you didn’t see coming. 💥

For me? This question is drawing me closer to God, one uncomfortable revelation at a time.

And I can’t wait to see how this Girls Trip to Peace™ transforms all of us.

So let me ask you one more time, sis…

What are YOU looking for in 2025?
And are you ready to find it with Jesus? 👀💖
