You don't haveto stay stuck.
Friend, God has already given you the power to walk out the destiny He called you to, and He has already made provision that lines up with your purpose and your pathway. Forward Focused is thirty days in the Word to help you face the facts, frame the future, and keep moving forward with Him.
Three days of Scripture, reflection, and writing, sent straight to your inbox.
Friend, life has been a lot.
Wherever you are standing right now, God has a plan, and He is not finished with you.
Set it down. Keep reading.Face the facts.Frame the future.Become forward focused.
Face the Facts
Say out loud why you are where you are.
Sometimes we look back through rose-colored glasses and remember the past as better than it really was. When you get honest and say out loud why you are where you are, you stop romanticizing it, and you can finally see whether and how you were walking in the will of God.
Frame the Future
Write the vision down and make it plain.
God knows the plans He has for you, and He does not label you by what you've been through. He has removed your past as far as the east is from the west, and the east and the west never touch, so once you lay it down, don't pick it back up. Seek the Lord, seek godly counsel, and write the vision down and make it plain.
Forward Focused
Set your face like a flint.
Jesus said that anyone who puts a hand to the plow and keeps looking back isn't ready for the work of the kingdom, so your heart and your hand have to line up. Set your face like a flint, get your posture and your position pointed forward, and take the step God already told you to take, because many times He won't show you the next step until you take that one. When God guides, He provides.
A life-changing, focused journey, moving forward one day at a time.
I wrote Forward Focused for the woman who is ready to stop circling the same place and start moving with God again. Every day gives you Scripture that speaks straight to the ache, an honest reflection, a real place to write down what you've been carrying, and space to practice setting pieces of it back down.
Available in paperback on Amazon.
I'm Michelle, and I wrote this book when I needed to hear from God for myself.
A lot of things in my life were coming to a point of decision at the same time, and I had to block everything out and get quiet enough to hear what God was saying to me. I didn't need another book, I didn't need another podcast, and I didn't need another video telling me what to do. I needed to hear from the Lord, because I knew I couldn't take another step until I did. Forward Focused was born in that place, and I'm praying it meets you right where you are.
Meet MichelleLet's bring a forward focused word to your women.
I love standing in a room full of women who have been carrying more than anybody knows and reminding them that God has a plan, that He has given them the power and the provision for it, and that it is time to move. I speak at women's conferences, church and women's ministry events, retreats, panels, and professional women's gatherings, in person and virtually.
Invite Michelle to SpeakFriend, you were never meant to walk this out alone.
The Forward Focused Family is a small group of women moving forward together, praying for one another, and keeping each other going long after the last page. I'll be walking with this group myself. Join the waitlist and you'll be the first to hear when the doors open.

In three days you'll face the facts about where you are, frame the future God has for you, and take your first forward focused step. Each day follows the same layout as the book, with Scripture, a reflection, and space to write, so it feels like home if you pick up the full journal later.
