Ever feel like everyone else is miles ahead and you’re just hoping nobody discovers the leftover spaghetti science experiment in your fridge? 😂
Here’s the truth that’s been hitting my heart lately: you’re not behind.
Not in your life. Not in God’s story. And Not for one blessed second.
What We Talk About In This Episode
In Season 2, Episode 8 of my podcast, Unscripted Conversations, I got real about how easy it is to feel behind.
We talked about:
- Why we compare our behind-the-scenes to someone else’s highlight reel
- Abraham & Sarah trying to rush God’s promise — and the mess that caused
- What Isaiah 55 means when God says His ways and thoughts are higher than ours
- And how to trust God’s timing, even when it feels painfully slow.
Favorite Scriptures From This Episode
Galatians 6:4-5 (NLT)
“Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else.”
Romans 8:25 (NLT)
“But if we look forward to something we don’t yet have, we must wait patiently and confidently.”
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NLT)
“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord.
“And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.”
You’re Not Behind — Even When It Feels Like It
So maybe today, instead of scrolling and stacking your life up against someone else’s, you:
- Thank God for your half-done projects
- Pet your dog, text your kid, call your mama
- And remember that your beautifully ordinary, sometimes messy life is exactly on time.
And friend, if nobody’s told you lately — your story is unfolding exactly how God planned it. Even if it looks messy or slow from where you’re standing, He’s still working, still faithful, and still right on time.
