Have you ever thought I should be so much further along by now?

Maybe you feel like you're running out of time, like you missed your opportunity.

But what if I told you you're not behind at all?

You're right on time for what God has planned.

I'm Terry Sevel Foy, your cheerleader of dreams.

And today I want to speak

directly to that feeling, that quiet pressure, that comparison, that voice that tells you you're

too late. Let me say this clearly. You are not behind. You are being prepared. You know,

God is not bound by your timeline. He's committed to your purpose. In fact, let me remind you of someone in the Bible, Joseph. Joseph had a dream from God as a teenager. But do you remember what happened? He was betrayed, sold into slavery, falsely accused, thrown into prison. Years passed. And it looked like it was just, he was going backwards, not forward, but at 30 years old,

Joseph became second in command over Egypt. Everything he went through was preparation for where he was

going. See, your delay is not denial, it's development. Development for where God has taken you.

In fact, I want you to listen to this. I made a list

of people who succeeded later in life. And let this encourage you because success does not have an

expiration date, okay? So listen to this. Lucille Ball had her big breakthrough at 40 when she

starred in the I Love Lucy show. 40. Morgan Freeman, his big

success started in his 50s. Ray Kroc started McDonald's at 52. Colonel Sanders franchised the KFC brand in his

late 60s. Think about this. Grandma Moses began painting in her late 70s. Vera Wang entered the

fashion industry at 40 years old. Samuel L. Jackson breakthrough at 46. Stan Lee created Spider-Man

in his 40s. Julia Child wrote her first cookbook at 50 years old. Martha Stewart, success after 40.

Steve Carell, major success at 43.

I could just keep going.
