128. You Are Placed On Purpose: What God Is Doing With What Is in Your Hand
Kingdom Educators with Jesica GloverShow Notes
In this reflective episode of Kingdom Educators with Jesica Glover, we continue the conversation sparked by Irene Lopez’s testimony in Miracles in the Hallways and step into a personal reflection on calling, obedience, and legacy. Jesica invites you to pause and consider a powerful question: What has God placed in your hand—and what are you doing with it? Through Scripture and story, this episode reminds us that our placement in education is not random, but deeply intentional. As you listen, you’ll be encouraged to trust God with what you already have, see your classroom through Heaven’s perspective, and release limiting beliefs about your influence. With key Scriptures like Acts 17:26, Ephesians 2:10, and Romans 8:28 woven throughout, this conversation will help you recognize how God uses even the smallest steps of obedience to shape something far greater than you can see. If you’ve been feeling uncertain, overlooked, or tempted to think small, this episode will re-anchor you in truth: God is actively writing your story, and He is not wasting a single part of it.

What does staying connected to Jesus actually look like when students need you and your plans unravel?
