Sometimes the path to purpose includes places we never asked for. God often prepares us in hidden, uncomfortable, and unexpected seasons. What feels like delay or detour may be divine development. Whether it’s the pasture like David or the prison like Joseph, those unplanned stops are often where strength is formed. When life takes turns you didn’t anticipate, lean into it. God hasn’t forgotten you—He’s just building the version of you that’s ready for what’s next.
