If you’re living in survival mode, comparing your life to others, or wondering how to trust God when there’s no clear plan, this conversation is for you.Drawing from 1 Corinthians 2:9, Sherry unpacks what it really means to be prepared—not compared, and why God often prepares the person long before revealing the promise. Through the stories of Joseph and Daniel, she explores how God works in the waiting, in exile, and in seasons that don’t feel productive—but are deeply formative.You’ll also hear practical encouragement for:Single moms living without a clear planPreparing your heart when life feels reactiveLetting go of comparison, pressure, and controlUnderstanding preparation as partnership with God, not performanceTrusting God when clarity hasn’t come yetFinding hope when you feel behind or unpreparedWith real talk, faith, and a little sass, this episode reminds you that preparation isn’t about having everything figured out—it’s about making room for God to work.And it ends with a question you won’t be able to shake:What if the clarity you’re asking God for only comes after obedience?🎧 Listen in, sit with it, and come back ready for what’s next.If you need prayer or support, Shepherd’s Village is here for you. 📞 Prayer Line: 855-822-PRAYSupport the showIt's a Single Mom Thing, Not the Single Thing That Stops You!
