In this powerful and transparent new episode of Resilience w/ Dawn Olivia, Dawn opens up about a recent, unexpected health challenge that forced her to pause, reflect, and ask God a deeper question: “What is my assignment?”

Through raw honesty, scripture, and Spirit-led encouragement, she shares how temporary paralysis became a divine invitation to rest, realign, and rediscover purpose. This conversation speaks to anyone who’s weary, stuck, grieving, or searching for direction. Dawn reminds us that God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness, and that every season—especially the hard ones—pushes us closer to our God-given purpose.

If you’re ready to tap back into your strength, hear God more clearly, and walk boldly into what He has called you to do, this episode will bless you deeply.

What's Your Assignment?

(0:25) Hello, my Resilience Family. I hope you guys week has been a beautiful one. Mine has been a long one for life.
It's life as usual. But God is good. God is good.

(0:57) So for some knows that I lost my mobility to walk temporarily and it just came to a shock to me. It just happened. So I have took it upon me to look at it as God, what are you teaching me? Why are you sitting me down? What am I to learn from this?

 (1:33) So this came on the whim of him putting in me, what's your assignment? And I was like, wow, wow.
What is my assignment on earth? What is my purpose that God birthed in me? 

(2:04) There comes times where I feel depleted. You probably feel the same, weary, maybe lost, maybe stuck. I want you to think about that time.
And if you're in that time right now, it's time to take that pause. 

(2:30) It's time to take a time out and let's tap back into our strength. The strength that God has given us.
4 Nehemiah 8.10 reminds us, do not grieve for the joy of the Lord is your strength. 

(2:57) It's a reminder that our joy and our strength, it comes from God, not from our circumstances. Our circumstances puts our eyes back on God.
It reminds us that man, I need to do life with you, God.

 (3:20) So I asked you my resilient ones, what is your assignment? What is the purpose that God has birthed in you to bring to this world? To help know what your assignment is, what your purpose is.

 (3:45) I say, we need to read our word, apply his word, stay humble, trust God, be obedient, stay prayed up and worship him.
We have to get this rhythm. We have to get this system in place.

 (4:10) A habit of doing these things, even when we tire, but God says we can rest.
So from this temporary paralysis, I'll call it because I can't get up and do what I want to do by myself.

 (4:40) I have to have help. I look at it as God's teaching me to truly lean on him, to rest and to really be humble, to really be mindful of what he's doing in my life and what he has done to help me get to the next level, to help me birth the purpose that he put me in this world.

(5:12) So guys, pause, really know what your assignment is, what your purpose is. For me, it's healing. I'm here to serve.
I help people in deep grief. 

(5:36) I am now seeing that I need to speak to the youth to help them know that they do have purpose too, that they are worthy, that they are enough. That is more in this world than hurt, than pain, than chaos.
Healing is what God called me to. And I pray that's what I'm helping on this platform and in my everyday walk in life.

 (6:12) So let me encourage you to do an inventory of your circle, get you some rooted friends.
And when I mean rooted, I mean rooted in that word. They rooted in God. They got your back, but they know that God is the ultimate.

(6:34) Watch where you plant yourself. Again, I ask you, what is your assignment? Start building your personal relationship with God. Lean on him.
He is with you. Say this with me. 

(7:10) God got me.
God got my house. God got my children. God got my ministry.
God got my business. God got my mind. God got my body.
God got my finances. God got my everything.

 (7:36) God got me, my resilient ones.
Don't forget who you are and whose you are. It's time for us to have dominion. It's time for us to stay rooted in God, be planted.

(8:01) So we can walk bold into 2026, guys. So we can elevate and soar despite the noise around us, despite what's happening in our world. Let's live out our purpose.
Let's know that we know that we know that God got us. 

(8:34) Jeremiah 29, 11. I know that is so familiar to us all, but I want us to remind us for I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord plans for welfare and not for evil to give you a future and hope.

(8:53) God got us. We're workmanship. We created in Christ for good works coming from Ephesians 210.
We walk with God. Let's talk with God. Let's press through with God, despite what's happening in our world.

(9:16) So I encourage you today. Think about what your assignment is. What is your purpose? Write it down.
Make a plan and take action. I love you resilient family. 

(9:38) And I thank you to my friends, my families, my Facebook family, everybody that's checked up on me.
I appreciate you. I am truly grateful. I am truly grateful because I'm not going to lie.

(9:52) Sometimes I'll be feeling like I'm alone. I'm in this by myself and the struggle be real. But I know God put me here for a purpose and I'm here walking out my life with you guys because I want you to know you're not alone.

(10:08) I want you to know that we got this, that God embedded a purpose in you and it's time to give birth to that seed. 

(10:21) So to my mamas that have lost children, I've written an ebook, guys, and even to anyone that's lost a loved one. I believe this ebook is a tool that will help you heal.
That's going to help you press through your grief process.

 (10:44) It's going to help you get closer to God so you can live out that purpose that he implanted in you. Check out my website, Resilience W Dawn Olivia dot com to get that ebook.
It's called trusting God through the tears. 

(11:11) And if you need a little bit of encouragement on building your resilience, I have another ebook that's on Kindle. Go get it.
Gift it guys. Share it. And if you need any prayers, email me.
Resilience 7781 at gmail.com. I'm here for you. I am a prayer warrior. I believe that with all my heart.
God got us. 

(11:48) So again, take that time out and know your assignment, what your purpose is. Write it down.
Let's live out this purpose that God put in each and every one of us. 

(12:02) Because God got us and he meant for us to live well and in victory on earth. 

(12:09) I love you, my resilience family.
Stay strong, stay well, and always, always stay resilient. 

(12:22) I love you.
