By understanding these elements, you can make clearer decisions, establish healthier boundaries, and navigate life’s challenges with greater ease.Understanding Purpose: Purpose is a powerful driving force in our lives. Michelle emphasizes that every woman has a unique purpose, which often requires introspection and guidance to uncover. She encourages listeners to take the time to reflect and communicate with God to discern what their purpose truly is. For many, like Michelle, purpose is revealed through life experiences and interactions with others. She shares her journey of discovering her purpose in helping people grow and succeed, which she found particularly rewarding as her children became more independent.Lynelle’s journey is equally profound. Through her experiences as a single mother and navigating feelings of inadequacy, she realized that her purpose lies in empowering women who feel lost. She aims to help them recognize their gifts and reframe their perspectives, turning perceived failures into strengths. This realization came from her own struggles, where she found solace in understanding that many women share these feelings of doubt and isolation.Core Values: The conversation then shifts to core values, which are essential in guiding our actions and decisions. Lynelle admits that she hadn’t fully understood the concept of core values until later in life, realizing how critical they are in shaping her daily choices. She identifies her top five core values: freedom, wisdom, faith, health, and family.

Michelle reveals that her practice of gratitude transformed her life. By intentionally expressing thanks for even the smallest blessings, she found that her outlook improved, and she became more receptive to receiving blessings in return. This practice not only enhanced her well-being but also became a foundational element of her purpose.Consistency in Purpose: Maintaining alignment with one’s purpose requires intentionality. Both Lynelle and Michelle acknowledge that staying true to their purpose is an ongoing journey filled with challenges. They emphasize that perfection is not the goal; rather, it’s about taking steps forward, even when the path is unclear. They inspire listeners to embrace the idea that "done is better than perfect" and that God qualifies those who are called to serve a greater purpose.Conclusion: In conclusion, discovering your purpose and defining your core values can lead to a more fulfilling and peaceful life. By reflecting on these elements, you can create a clearer path for decision-making and enhance your relationships. Remember, you are not alone on this journey; many share your struggles and triumphs. Embrace your uniqueness, lean into your values, and take actionable steps towards your purpose.Key Takeaways:1. Everyone has a unique purpose that may require reflection and divine guidance to uncover.2. Core values serve as a guiding compass for decision-making and daily actions.3. Practicing gratitude can transform your perspective and enhance your overall well-being.4. Embrace imperfection and take steps forward in alignment with your purpose.

“Thy kingdom come” is a phrase we can say on autopilot…"
“Thy kingdom come” is a phrase we can say on autopilot… but what are we actually inviting into our lives when we pray those words?In this episode, we slow down and sit with that line from the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:10) and ask:What does God’s kingdom really look like in an ordinary Tuesday?How does “Thy kingdom come” confront our comfort, our plans, and our timelines?What would it mean to live like heaven is already breaking in—right where you are?Together, we’ll explore how God’s reign is not just a far-off future, but a present reality that touches our thoughts, relationships, work, and even the way we see ourselves. This isn’t a theological lecture; it’s an honest, heart-level conversation that invites you to let the Holy Spirit examine your expectations, your desires, and your definition of a “good life.”As you listen, consider:Where am I still building my kingdom instead of yielding to His?If God’s kingdom came fully into my life today, what would need to change?How might I partner with God’s will “on earth as it is in heaven” in my home, my heart, and my decisions this week?This episode is your invitation to go a little deeper, think a little longer, and open your heart wider to the King and His kingdom.
