Welcome, Sis. I’m so glad you’re here.

Between work & home, family & friends, full schedules and unending tasks, it’s tempting to hurry through our days without even stopping to rest and enjoy the moment.

But, God said:

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Psalms 46:10 NIV

When was the last time you were intentionally still?

You can be still —right now—and know that He is God.

Intentionally & Practically live in a way that honors and magnifies Him.

When I “Walk This Thing Out” with God, by the leading of the Holy Spirit, I feel His pleasure.

In life, there’s always so much that seems to need our attention and it’s tempting to become consumed by that thing. But the Lord encourages us: “Be still, and know that He is God.” If you take time to be still & listen to him, you gain the blessings that come from knowing His presence with you.

Sis, how do we practically live life (walk this thing out) while keeping our perspective on God. How do we live our lives with a high view of God and a high view of scripture?

A home (that’s you/your physical home/family) built on the Lord Jesus, and nurtured by a woman who spends time seeking wisdom, understanding and knowledge with the Lord each day, will stand strong in the storms of life. But again, how do you do that, practically speaking?

(Consider)

Error -VS- Elevation

*Error is a mistake or a deviation from what God intended or planned.

*Elevation are privileges/blessings/favor/advancement gained from proper Christian living. Going above daily concerns through faith and a deep connection with God. It signifies the pursuit of a higher spiritual and moral state through faith in Christ.

Let’s “walk this thing out” together. I have a story to tell and it can help you, in living fully for Christ while walking in your purpose, practically speaking….

My name is LeElla Cross, and this space was created with one purpose in mind: to encourage you to Just Show Up—for God, for yourself, and for the life He’s called you to live.

I’m a faith-filled woman, a wife, a mama, a creative, and a Kingdom builder. I’m also the founder of “Be Still” 4610: A Christian Boutique and the heart behind BranchOut—We Grow to Give, a mission-led ministry that reaches the under-served with love, essentials, and the Gospel.

Here on Substack, you’ll find:

• 💜 Devotional reflections straight from my heart

• ☕ Cozy conversations with God over coffee

• ✍🏾 Real testimonies, journal prompts, scripture declarations

• 🎙️ Updates from the podcast: Just Show Up: Learning to Trust & Obey (Hosted by LeElla & Tiffany)

• 🎙️ Updates from podcast: Walk This Thing Out - Walking Blueprint (Straight from the Word of God, but lived practically) (Hosted by LeElla)

My life hasn’t been perfect, but it’s been purposeful—because every “yes” to God has led me deeper into grace. I believe that when we show up, even with shaky faith, He shows out.

This is a space where daughters of God gather to grow, heal, and walk it out together.

Let’s do this journey—day by day, moment by moment—with open hearts and intentional faith.

Because Sis, He’s already waiting for you.
