When the wrong people seem to win (and you’re trying to do right)… it can make you tired. In this Bible study for women, Patricia Calixte (Patty Pat) breaks down Psalm 73 and what to do when dishonest people look comfortable, untouchable, and “blessed”… while you’re over here doing your best to stay clean and faithful.

This message is for the sister who’s been thinking:

“Why does doing right feel slow?”

“Why does their life look easier than mine?”

“Is my obedience even worth it?”

“Why does injustice keep happening?”

Psalm 73 gives you God’s perspective—so you don’t slip into comparison, shortcuts, or bitterness. And most importantly, it brings you back to the truth: peace is part of the blessing, and Jesus is the way back to God’s peace!

Not on the list? Access denied? Claiming the inheritance but rejecting the Father? In this Bible study for women, Patricia Calixte (Patty Pat) breaks down what it really means to be a child of God, an heir of God, and part of His Kingdom through Jesus Christ!

A lot of people want the blessings of God, the protection of God, the peace of God, and the inheritance of God… but they don’t want a true relationship with God. They want the mansion, but not the Father. They want the access, but not the surrender. They want the title, but not the transformation.

But Scripture makes it clear: you can’t inherit what you reject.

So if you’ve been wondering,

“Why do I feel far from God?”

“Why do I feel lonely?”

“Why do I only run to Jesus when life falls apart?”

“Why do I keep repeating the same patterns and ending up hurt?”

“How do I come back to God after everything I’ve done?”

Or if you’ve been saying, “I’m a child of God,” but you’ve been distant from Him, running from Him, or trying to claim His promises without walking with Him… my sister, this message is for you.
