How God Uses Hard Seasons To Shape Your Calling

from Positioned for Purpose Conversations with Colette Marie · host Colette Marie

Send us Fan MailPain has a way of making God feel distant, even when you want to believe He’s close. I’m Colette Marie, and I’m speaking to the woman of faith who is tired, hurting, and quietly wondering, “What could God possibly do with this?”I slow down and tell the truth about my own worst season after my marriage ended: the heartbreak, the loneliness, the fear about the future, and the days when I didn’t even feel like praying. Instead of skipping to a neat ending, I share how desperation became the doorway to a deeper relationship with God, and how that relationship began to heal and rebuild me from the inside out.Romans 8:28 is the foundation, not as a slogan, but as a hard-won promise that “all things” really means all things. I also walk through Numbers 13, where the Israelites see both grapes and giants, and how we can get so focused on what stands in the way that we forget who sent us. If you’re navigating divorce recovery, chronic stress, a diagnosis, financial pressure, or a long wait for breakthrough, this is faith-based encouragement for real life.You’ll leave with a clearer view of purpose in pain, practical ways to resist isolation, and a reminder that God doesn’t waste your story.
