How to Know God's Calling for YOUR Life (Even If You Feel Ordinary)
|
Does it ever feel like your life is nothing more than an endless to-do list for everyone else? The kids need something. The house needs something. Your husband could use five minutes of your full attention that you just don't have. Maybe you're leading a Bible study, or you said yes to a volunteer slot, or there's a workout you keep meaning to start and haven't yet. Every single thing on that list feels important. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, a quiet thought starts to settle in⦠You're nothing special. No one really notices what you do all day. Everyone else seems to have it together. You have nothing unique to offer, at least not right now, not in this busy, ordinary season. Maybe you've told yourself your real calling is still coming, once the kids are older, once you finally have more time and energy to go find it. Or maybe you've quietly wondered if you already missed your window. And that if you haven't figured it out by now, you're not going to. If any of that sounds familiar, today's episode is for you. On this week's episode of the Equipping Godly Women podcast, we're talking about how to know God's will for your life specifically, even when you feel busy, ordinary, or "behind." You'll see why a real calling doesn't need a platform, a title, or a season with more free time to count as real. And you'll get a simple set of questions to figure out what's actually yours to carry right now, today, in the middle of carpool lines and dishes and everything else. In this episode, we talk about:
Where to Listen:

You'll learn how to spot the opportunities God has already placed right in front of you, what to do if you still don't feel like you have a clear calling, and how He uses even your busiest, most ordinary season to prepare you for what's next.

If you could design your perfect day, what would it look like? Maybe it starts with getting up early for some quiet time with God. And then everyone gets dressed without an argument. You feed your family something healthy, keep the house reasonably clean, and even answer the emails you've been ignoring (all without losing your patience!). You have enough time for your marriage, your kids, your health, your ministry, and that very thing you've been wanting to start. Basically, everything goes...
Have you ever woken up early, determined to spend a few quiet minutes in God's Word before the chaos starts, only to spend the next hour breaking up a fight over the iPad, cleaning spilled cereal off the floor, and hunting down a shoe you specifically asked to be put away yesterday? By 9am you already feel like you've failed. Not because of one big thing, but because of the quiet, running tally you keep all day. The Bible reading you skipped. The moment you snapped at your kids. The way you...
Right now, I'm deep in back-to-school mode. Buying school supplies. Making sure the kids have haircuts, gym shoes, and clothes that fit. Scheduling doctor's appointments, fall extracurriculars, and volunteer opportunities... In just a few weeks, my daily schedule will look radically different than it does now. Everyone will wake up and go to bed MUCH earlier. The house will be quieter (which sounds nice!), BUT it's because I won't have my big helpers around to help watch the toddler while I...
