Wishes vs. Goals: The Biblical Difference That Changes Everything

Описание: Connect with Christian women who understand the workplace challenges you face: https://christianworkingwoman.org/

What’s the difference between a wish and a goal—and why does it matter for your faith?

In this Mondays with Mary message from The Christian Working Woman, Mary Lowman explains why so many good intentions never turn into real change—and how setting intentional, realistic goals can transform your spiritual life.

Many Christian women want to grow spiritually. They wish they prayed more, read the Bible consistently, or felt closer to God. But without a plan, those wishes often fade. Scripture reminds us that knowing what to do isn’t enough—we are blessed when we do it (John 13:17).

In this video, you’ll learn:
The biblical difference between a wish and a goal
Why spiritual growth doesn’t happen by accident
How to set realistic, God-honoring goals
Practical steps to build consistency in prayer and Bible study
How accountability and planning support long-term growth

This message is especially helpful for Christian women who feel stretched thin, inconsistent, or discouraged by unmet spiritual goals. Godly desires are good—but they become life-changing when we pursue them intentionally.

If you’ve been holding onto good wishes that haven’t turned into action yet, this encouragement will help you take the next faithful step.

Because real growth doesn’t start with wishing—it starts with deciding.
