What on earth are you here for? That seemingly simple question has profound implications for every woman of faith seeking to understand her divine calling. My personal journey began in 2019 when I felt God urging me to leave a job I loved without clearly revealing what was next. The fear was overwhelming—stepping from security into uncertainty, from the familiar into the unknown—yet something deeper pulled me toward obedience.
Through prayer and guidance from a life coach, I discovered my purpose centered around impacting women by sharing my own story of divorce, childhood trauma, and struggles with confidence. The very pain I wanted to hide became the foundation of my ministry. This revelation didn't come easily; it required overcoming my resistance to being stretched beyond comfort and accepting that God's plans didn't match my preconceived notions.
Finding your purpose begins with specific questions: What brings you joy? What problems do you naturally solve? Where has God positioned you right now? Sometimes your calling isn't about leaving your current situation—God may want to use you exactly where you are, in your family, workplace, or community. Other times, He calls you to step out, acquire new skills, and face financial or personal costs you never anticipated.
My five-year journey walking in purpose hasn't been easy. There have been days I wanted to abandon everything, yet each time I chose obedience, God provided support through unexpected people and opportunities. The underpinning truth remains: "All things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28). Your mess can become a message, your test a testimony, but only if you're willing to pay the price of obedience. Are you ready to discover what God has uniquely designed you to do?
