79| You’re Not Behind: Trusting God When Your Timeline Feels Off

from Anchored with Purpose | Faith, Family, Purpose, Dreaming, Planning, Overcoming Anxiety, Overcoming Overwhelm · host Melissa Wilkinson - Life Coach for Catholic Women

Have you ever caught yourself wondering if you’re behind in life, faith, or business?In this episode, I’m sharing something that’s been on my heart in a very real way. Recently, I’ve had moments where I’ve questioned my own timeline, wondering if I should be further along or doing more. But through prayer and reflection, God keeps bringing me back to this truth:You are not behind.In this episode, we’re talking about how God doesn’t reveal your purpose all at once. He reveals it one step at a time. If you’ve been waiting for clarity, feeling stuck in comparison, or holding back because you don’t have the full plan, this is your reminder to trust Him with your next step.We also connect this conversation to this month’s theme, from building a daily faith practice after Lent, to taking action in your life and business, to stepping into leadership.📖 Free Anchored with Purpose Faith Journal: https://anchored-with-purpose.kit.com/fb72f69cdf Key Takeaways:Why the feeling of being “behind” is often rooted in comparisonGod’s timing is different from your timeline and it is always intentionalClarity often comes after you take action, not beforeWhy you don’t need the full blueprint to move forwardThe power of praying for your “next right step”How a daily faith practice helps you hear God more clearlyA simple question to help you take action todayChapters:00:00 You are not behind02:00 How this episode fits into this month’s theme03:30 The comparison trap and feeling behind05:00 God’s timing and Ecclesiastes 3:1106:30 Trusting God without the full plan08:00 How God reveals purpose step by step09:30 Why clarity comes through action11:00 Proverbs 3:5-6 and trusting God12:00 Stop waiting and take the next step13:30 One question to help you move forwardResources & Links: 🎧 From Lent to Lifestyle episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/73-from-lent-to-lifestyle-how-to-build-a-daily/id1775076672?i=1000754688886 🎧 Interview with Kara Williams: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/78-god-gave-you-this-for-a-reason-with-kara-williams/id1775076672?i=1000761282052 📖 Free Anchored with Purpose Faith Journal: https://anchored-with-purpose.kit.com/fb72f69cdf Call to Action:If this episode spoke to you, share it with a friend who needs this reminder.
