#44 The God Who Honors Small Steps and Sees Your Faithfulness

Season 1 Episode 44 Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description

When your progress feels slow or unseen, it’s not failure — it’s divine timing. This episode explores how God honors the small, faithful steps you take in silence and what alignment looks like when you feel forgotten.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your quiet faithfulness matters… this episode is for you.

We’re talking about divine timing — the kind that doesn’t come through striving, but through soul-aligned obedience.

Julie shares the story of the Shunammite woman (2 Kings 8), her own season of delayed clarity, and how John Bevere’s path illustrates that God often moves slower — and more strategically — than we’d choose.

Key truths in this episode:

  • Obedience doesn’t always come with instant outcomes
  • Faithfulness in hidden seasons still shapes who you become
  • What’s meant for you won’t miss you — even if it takes seven years

Today’s Micro Recalibration:

Ask yourself:

  1. Am I rushing toward something — or being led by alignment?
  2. What has obedience already cost me — and what has it formed in me?
  3. If I trusted that God’s timing is perfect, how would I show up differently?

Here are a few ways you can act on this:

  • Revisit a decision you’ve been questioning — and name what faithfulness looks like today
  • Take one quiet action that aligns with your identity, not urgency
  • Celebrate something you’ve obeyed even when no one was watching

For leaders:
If you lead a team, a family, or a room — name someone’s unseen faithfulness today.
Say: “I see how steady you’ve been. It matters.”

That’s not just encouragement — that’s leadership stewardship.
