What is your purpose in this life? This profound question plagued me for years as I felt stuck simply going through the motions. Though I was a Christian, I lacked a deep sense of meaning or direction.
When I committed to daily devotional time with God, He transformed my heart and mind. I uncovered my unique purpose and calling step-by-step through prayerful reflection of scriptural truth.
My journey inspired me to write the book Truth Laced with Grace: 31 Purpose Driven Devotions for Women to guide other women to live out their destiny. If you long to understand God’s plan for your life, I pray these Spirit-led devotions ignite your soul!
Turning to God for Clarity
In this frustrating fog, I tried to numb my unease with busyness. But deep down, I knew only God could provide the answers and direction I desperately needed.
I decided to start small - just 10 minutes a day devoted to prayerful study of His Word. I sought guidance, asked Him to reveal my calling, and listened for His voice.
To my delight, I quickly noticed my anxiety lifting. God’s truth resonated deeply in my soul, refreshing and strengthening me. With consistent devotion, I gained crystal clear focus on who He created me to be.
My 31 Days of Transformational Devotion
The insights I gained from a month of intentional devotion inspired me to write Truth Laced with Grace. I compiled 31 devotionals covering core topics like identity, strengths, dreams, and purpose.
Each day features:
- An inspirational affirmation to meditate on
- Relevant Bible verses
- Reflection questions to ponder
- A closing prayer
Here are just a few themes woven throughout the 31 days:
Day 1: You Are Treasured
On the first day, I focused on verses about how God intricately formed me in my mother's womb and called me by name. I am His precious, cherished child. This brought tears of comfort.
Day 12: God Equips You
I reflected on how God doesn't call me to any task without giving me the talents and ability to fulfill it. I just need to step out in faith!
Day 15: Take Heart, Daughter
On days I felt afraid or inadequate, verses reminding me of God's constant love and strength exhorted me to press on courageously.
Day 20: Dream Big
I was hesitant to dream. But I was inspired to imagine all God could do through me when I wholly surrendered my life to Him.
Day 31: Walk in Your Destiny
The last devotion filled me with joyful anticipation and boldness to step into the purpose God revealed for me over the prior 30 days.
The Fruit of My Devotional Journey
After just one month of consistent, devoted time with God, He profoundly changed my heart and mindset. Here is some of the beautiful fruit:
