Have you ever wondered if your small victories are worth celebrating? When that Buzzsprout notification lit up my screen announcing 1,000 podcast downloads, I faced a choice: dismiss it as insignificant or recognize it as evidence of faithfulness.

A thousand downloads over 13 months breaks down to roughly 2.5 downloads per day. Some would scoff at these numbers, pointing to content creators who achieve this in a single day. But that's missing the point entirely. This milestone represents something far more valuable than metrics—it represents showing up consistently even when doubt whispered that no one was listening, fears suggested my voice didn't matter, and logic questioned the purpose of continuing.

The journey to 1,000 downloads taught me three transformative lessons that apply to any God-given assignment. First, obedience truly is the pathway to blessing. When God repeatedly prompted me to share my story through this medium, each episode became an act of trust. Second, consistency creates momentum even when results aren't immediately visible. There were weeks I allowed fear to win and skipped recording, but pushing through those barriers gradually built confidence and listeners. Third, authenticity resonates more powerfully than perfection. Being genuinely myself—vulnerabilities and all—created connection with listeners from places as unexpected as Nairobi, Kenya.

What dream has God planted in your heart that you've hesitated to pursue? Someone is waiting for your obedience. They're waiting for you to use your voice, start that business, launch that ministry, or take that first imperfect step. As Philippians 1:6 reminds us, "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion." Trust His timing, embrace the journey, and celebrate every milestone along the way—because showing up consistently is a victory worth acknowledging.

Don't ever let anyone stop or hinder you from acknowledging every small win; don't wait for the big things to show appreciation for what God has done for you.
