  • What to do when you misunderstand or forget God’s instruction

Through the innocence of a child’s curiosity, be ready to reflect on God’s unseen hand steering our paths, His loving restoration after brokenness, and the importance of keeping a heart open to wonder.

In this episode of 2 Steps in the Right Direction, Yahreema McFarlane explores the transformative power of resetting. Inspired from her personal childhood, Yahreema reflects on the value of scratching out areas of life that no longer serve God's purpose for us.

Sometimes we hold onto habits, roles, or relationships out of comfort or tradition, even when God is calling us to something new. In those moments, we have permission to "scratch" what isn't working and open space for what He is ready to bring into our lives.

Through personal insights and biblical wisdom, we’ll uncover how to recognize what God is prompting us to release and reimagine our daily steps.

What to Expect in This Episode:

  • Practical ways to embrace God’s redirection in your relationships, career, and habits

  • The power of pivoting in the direction God is leading you from old dreams and desires

    2 Steps into the Right Direction Reflection:Is there an area in your life where God may be calling you to make a change, to "scratch" and rewrite with Him? Take a moment to ask Him, then write down what comes to mind.

2 Steps in the Right Direction
Praying Boldly: How to Ask God for Your Heart’s Desires with Confidence

In today’s episode, Yahreema McFarlane shares a lesson from the typical, chaotic morning with multiple kids.

Amid the rush to get everyone ready and out the door, her oldest daughter Eileen’s simple ask for lunch reveals a truth we can all relate to: sometimes we don’t ask for what we really need because we’re just trying to get through the day.

Yahreema shows us that if we’re not clear in our requests—to each other or to God—we might just miss out. Whether it’s about trusting God with our true desires or getting more intentional with our everyday prayers, there’s strength in letting go of fear and asking openly.

What to Expect in This Episode:

  • How to approach God with boldness 
  • How to release the fear of hearing “no” in prayer and life
  • What expecting God's “yes” and breaking out of habits that hold us back from asking looks like practically
  • Understand the impact of “disguised desires” and recognizing the simplicity of asking with faith
  • The benefit of bringing our true needs and desires to God without hesitation

2 Steps into the Right Direction Reflection:

Reflect and ask yourself: “What am I withholding in prayer because I’m afraid of the answer?” Spend time bringing that honest, unfiltered need to God, believing He desires to answer with love and wisdom.

Referenced Scripture:

James 4: 2-3 

John 14:13

Today’s conversation encourages us to be mindful of where we “place” our faith and how to mature spiritually in holding tight to what matters most.

We reflect on James 1:23-27, looking at how remembering who we are in Christ can help us keep our faith steady—even when life’s routines make it easy to lose sight.
