Uncovering What’s Holding You Back from Fulfilling Your Purpose
Identifying and Overcoming Obstacles to Fulfill Your Purpose.

Many believers struggle to step into their calling due to various fears and obstacles. Here are some common challenges and practical steps to overcome them:
Overthinking and Planning
Thinking too far ahead can be overwhelming. Start small and take the first step toward your calling. Instead of planning an entire ministry, begin by ministering to one person.
Fear of Doing the Wrong Thing
You don’t need a special calling to serve others. Jesus, the Good Shepherd, will guide you. If you go off course, He will call you back, ensuring you're always in His will.
Seeking Approval from Others
Don’t let the fear of others' opinions hold you back. Your qualifications come from Jesus, not from your skills or talents. Focus on serving with the right heart, not on building a platform.
Waiting for Church Approval
You don’t need to wait for your church’s endorsement to start serving. Initiate small acts of service independently and invite others to join you informally.
Practical Steps to Start
Do It Once: If you dream of feeding the homeless, start by making a few sandwiches and distributing them.
Set a Date: Schedule your first step within the next two weeks.
Invite Others: Personally ask a few people to join you.
By addressing these barriers and taking small, actionable steps, you can move forward confidently in your calling, serving faithfully and passionately in the name of Jesus.
