That’s so good. I’m 22 and struggling with this feeling. I dropped out of college because It was boring and uninteresting to me. I took an internship at a church that equipped me with knowledge and experience I couldn’t put a price on. I was making decent money at the time and it was a good season. Now I’m feeling stuck at my parents. I feel lonely and making scraps for money. I’m discipling students that are making more than me and it’s humiliating and after I’ve humbled myself before the Lord multiple times. I’ve heard that Mary and Martha story many times, but that insight with Peter and Andrew was good.

This is so relatable. I am 23 years old and I have never even been to university. My plan was to pursue music because it is something I love doing but my parents and other family members said it was a bad idea, so I felt discouraged, so I have been working as a waitress since 2022 till now, and I feel like a total failure because I have allowed peoples perspective to make me give up on things I love doing, and on top of that I feel like I have missed out on an opportunity to being a musician because I see other 19 year olds doing it better, or even people my age doing better than I ever could.

I haven’t been making time for God like I had been previously. I’ve been feeling the effects of putting his word behind.. this has gone on for me for about 3.5 months now, when I was making that time every day before that. I felt like I was on fire, and I quickly went to smoldered ashes.. I realize how truly weak I am up against fear :-( I needed this message today to know that being “behind” isn’t worth less.

I remember calling a God fearing mentor in my life just distraught one day, and him saying to me, 'Ian, you measure up! God wants you to know, you measure up!' I broke down for ten minutes straight a broken and instantly healed man by his incredible Holy Spirit led words. That moment changed my life and broke off chains that could have remained a long time! Great word brother!

Going through this now. This was like a healing balm to my heart. Even my coworkers make comments on “where I should be in life”. I need to be seeking the Lord. I like the idea of literally setting apart days with nothing planned. I need to do that with my husband, life is so busy right now I’ve hardly had time to shower some days. Time for a change. A change in Gods direction not mine, not the worlds. Thank you for this video brother in Christ ❤ be blessed in the name of Jesus

I'm almost 40 and I feel very behind and lost.

Don’t worry brother. God knows and understands how you feel and nothing will separate you from that love that he has for you. Some people who seem like they have figured it all out might be even more lost than you. I’m praying for you. God bless!!

I gotta say, God’s been teaching me this, I’m 24, granted that’s young, but want to be married and have kids. But for the last 3 and a half years, friend after friend after friend has been getting married and starting families. Even kids whose Middle School Sunday School teacher I was are getting married. It was difficult and I rushed, especially because the church environment I was in was very hustle and bustle. Well last year I started attending a new church and became a member in March, things are a lot more slowed down, people are more present, and I’ve been building authentic relationships and true friendships. I still want to marry and have a family, but I am more confident in God’s timing, embracing this current season, and being present. Thank you Isaac, God bless. Btw, if anyone is planning on commenting advice, please be considerate and pray about it, I’ve dealt with enough insensitive comments, being told I’d never get married, or the 1 Corinthians 7 speech.

"...if any would not work, neither should he eat." 2 Thessalonians 3:10. It's about balance. Don't make work and the pursuit of money an addiction (a new god in your life.) But, from my experience, it is difficult to serve God, and not be a productive, tax paying, generous to others, member of society. But, if the Holy Spirit is honestly suggesting someone not work, then follow His advice, not mine. My experience only. God bless.
