The Fierce Urgency of Now: Answering God’s Call to Action

January 20, 2025


You may (or may not) have noticed that I’ve been quiet this month. I usually start off each January of the new year with a time of prayer and reflection, tuning in to the voice of God for direction for the next 12 months. This year has been especially heavy as there is way too much noise in the world. So I intentionally took the month to focus and quiet my mind and spirit.


As I was praying and meditating today, one phrase kept echoing in my heart: “the fierce urgency of now.” Today we’re honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and this powerful quote from him reminds us that there is such a thing as being too late. His words challenge us to recognize the pressing need to step forward, to act, and to fulfill our God-given purpose without hesitation.


I believe that we are all called to bring something unique into the world—our gift, our ideas, our solutions. The truth is, the world doesn’t just need what we carry; it’s waiting for it. Each of us has been entrusted with something that no one else can offer, and now is the time to release it.


If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to start, let me tell you: this is it. Whatever God has placed in your heart, now is the time to step into it. Whether it’s sharing your knowledge, building relationships, creating solutions, or spreading hope, we must move forward with boldness and faith.


The Word of God encourages us in Esther 4:14 (NKJV): “Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Like Esther, we must embrace the urgency of the moment and trust that God has positioned us for this exact season to make an impact.

This year, I’m taking a leap of faith by launching something God has laid on my heart: Kingdom Texperts.


Here’s the mantra that defines Kingdom Texperts:As Kingdom Texperts, we combine our God-given talents with the Spirit of Excellence, using technology as a powerful and innovative tool to fulfill our purpose and amplify our impact. Guided by the Spirit of God, we operate skillfully and faithfully to deliver Kingdom solutions to the world’s challenges, striving to be 10 times better in all we do. Through every endeavor and creative work, we aim to inspire others, reach the masses, and glorify God.” (Scripture Theme: Daniel 1:4, 17-20.)


Kingdom Texperts - Creating spirit-led innovations to solve the world's problems.

While I don’t have every detail figured out, I know one thing for sure—there’s a deep need for this, and I can’t afford to wait. Kingdom Texperts will be a community for learning, innovation, and faith, helping others bridge the gap between technology and purpose. Together, we’ll step into the digital age with confidence and clarity, guided by God’s wisdom.


Maybe you’re feeling the tug in your spirit right now. Perhaps you’ve been holding back, waiting until you feel ready or until the path becomes clearer. But here’s the truth: the call doesn’t come when we’re ready; it comes when God is ready. And He is always on time.

So, I’m inviting you to join me on this journey. Let’s commit to taking action today—not when it feels convenient, but when it feels urgent. Together, let’s answer the call to bring light, hope, and God’s love and solutions to a world that needs them.


What is God calling you to step into right now?
