It’s a terrible feeling—that sense that you’re falling behind while everyone else is moving forward. A friend lands their dream job while you’re still figuring things out. Someone gets married while you’re still waiting for a date. A colleague expands their reach while you feel like you’re standing still.

The longer the delay, the louder the inner voice whispers, “You should be further along by now.” And with that comes the restlessness, the self-doubt, the temptation to force something just to feel like you're making progress.

But what if that feeling is lying to you? What if God’s pace for your life is not only different—but better?

By listening, you’ll:

✔ Identify the “I’m behind” mindset and how it sneaks into your thinking. ✔ Recognize the telltale signs—impatience, envy, striving, or self-doubt—that come with it. ✔ Learn to release self-imposed deadlines and false comparisons. ✔ Discover how delays can be signs of God’s greater grace. ✔ Find courage to trust God’s pace—even when it doesn’t make sense. ✔ Learn to rest in His perfect plan, knowing you are never behind.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the waiting room of life, wondering if God has forgotten you, this episode will remind you of a deeper truth: You are not behind. God is always on time.

💡Today’s Big Idea: You are not behind. God is always on time.

⚡️Today’s Small Step: Make this into a breath prayer, and practice it throughout each day, so it becomes an anchor place and pace you can return to again and again. Breathe in: I am not behind. Breathe out: God is always on time.
