Stop running in the wrong lane | How to know what God actually assigned you (Word #44)

To Run Or Not To Run with Jesus Christ

About

You can’t run God’s race in somebody else’s lane and then wonder why you’re tired.Because sometimes you’re not stuck because you’re not gifted.You’re stuck because you’re gifted… but misplaced.

In this bold word, Patricia Calixte (aka Patty Pat) breaks down what it looks like to stay in your lane—the lane God designed for you—so you stop burning energy trying to win in a lane He never assigned.

And my sister… this is bigger than “purpose talk.”

This is about alignment. Identity. Obedience. Peace.

We’re talking about:

• How “familiar” can trick you into staying misaligned

• Why some doors stay shut (and it’s not because you’re cursed)

• The real cost of running for approval

• How to pray your way into your lane (Ask. Seek. Knock.)

• Why identity in Christ changes everything

• The difference between being around Jesus… and being transformed by Jesus

Because Jesus doesn’t just call you to run.

He calls you to run the right lane.
