Are You on the Path You’re Supposed to Be On?

Hello, my beautiful sisters.

Let’s get real. Have you ever sat with yourself, looked at your life, and wondered, “Is this it? Is this the path God has for me?”

You’re trying. You’ve tried so many things.

Some seemed promising at first but didn’t pan out. Others felt okay but not quite right.

Now you’re stuck in this in-between space, wondering if you’ll ever find that place where you feel fully aligned and purposeful.


Empathy

Sisters, you’re not alone.

That uncertainty? That feeling of being almost there but not quite? It’s exhausting.

You wonder if you’re missing something or if you’ve taken a wrong turn. You might feel pressure—society says you should have it all figured out by now, but your heart says otherwise.

It’s okay to feel lost; it’s okay to question. God isn’t rushing you. He’s shaping you, and even when you can’t see it, He’s working behind the scenes.

Reframing the Focus

What if this season of questioning isn’t a detour but a vital part of your journey?

Sometimes, God doesn’t show us the entire map; He gives us step-by-step directions. Maybe what feels like a wrong turn is God redirecting you to where you need to be. You’re building resilience, learning lessons, and growing in faith.

This process is preparation—it’s not punishment.


Encouragement

Let’s start small. Take a moment to reflect:

  1. What excites you? Even in the smallest way, what brings you joy or fulfillment?
  2. What’s worked before? Look at your past wins, no matter how minor, and see what patterns emerge.
  3. What’s holding you back? Fear? Doubt? Perfectionism? Pray for courage to release these.

And most importantly, ask God for clarity. His voice is quiet but sure. He’s not asking you to have all the answers—He’s asking you to trust Him step by step.


Uplifting Call to Action

Here’s what I want you to do this week:

  • Spend 15 minutes each day in quiet reflection or prayer. Ask God to reveal your next step.
  • Write down what feels almost right but not quite. What’s missing? Pray for wisdom to fill the gaps.
  • Take one small action, no matter how tiny, toward what feels aligned. Sometimes the smallest steps lead to the biggest breakthroughs.

My beautiful sisters, don’t give up. You’re not lost—you’re being refined.

Your purpose isn’t out there somewhere; it’s being shaped within you. Keep moving forward with faith and trust, knowing that God is guiding you to the place you’re truly meant to be.

You’ve got this.
