For Years, I Followed the World’s Blueprint

Hi, I'm Marcia Roberts

For years, I followed what I now call the world’s blueprint for success — one built on striving, surviving, and self-made ambition.

I chased financial freedom, status, and results, believing that with enough planning and performance, I could secure the life I desired.

And for a while, it worked.

Goals were reached. Plans came to life.

But something was missing.

Despite the achievements, I felt increasingly disconnected from what truly mattered.

I was moving forward… but breaking inside.

From 2020 to 2024, God gently and persistently called me back.

Every idol — whether it was a person, a plan, or an outcome — was lovingly removed to show me what surrender really looks like.

But I kept defaulting to control.

I was a planner. I was an executor.

But I didn’t yet know how to yield.

Then Came 2025

I had just wrapped Legacy in Action — a major event I launched at the end of 2024.

It wasn’t just the end of a season. It was the launchpad for a five-year vision I had carefully built and prepared.

This wasn’t just a plan for the year ahead. It was a fully developed blueprint for the next five years of my life and work. Books. Courses. Workshops. Memberships. Programs, products, platforms — all mapped out and scheduled to officially launch in April 2025. It was more than a business launch.

It was meant to mark our 14-year anniversary and signal a new chapter for our family — with the official launch of our YouTube channel, D’Family Compass. As a family, we were stepping into a fresh direction — realigning our lives around Kingdom values and inviting others to do the same.
Everything — everything — was leading up to this.

It was the pre-launch to what I believed would define our family legacy for years to come. And right in the middle of what I thought was perfect alignment — while I was writing my first book, The Divine Realignment, a message meant to help others break free from striving and step into God's plan.

God broke me.

It wasn’t gentle.
It wasn’t gradual.

Emotionally. Spiritually. Mentally. Physically.

And in that moment, He revealed something I couldn’t deny:

I was still building on the world’s blueprint — not His
I was writing about alignment… but I hadn’t fully lived it.
I was teaching surrender while still gripping control.
I was producing from the works of the flesh — not from the leading of the Spirit.
I was fixing the surface — not the source.

And in That Breaking, Something Miraculous Happened

God didn’t just interrupt my plans — He revealed His.

He gave me a glimpse of what it truly means to thrive in His plan:

Not through striving, but through surrender.
Not through hustle, but through His grace.

“But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

— Matthew 6:33

He showed me His blueprint

One not built on effort, but obedience.
Not on force, but faith.

And within weeks, He did what I couldn’t do in years.

He brought clarity, direction, and divine order.

He not only gave me the vision — He gave me His plan.

He placed the right people in my life.

He opened doors I couldn’t force.

He orchestrated each step without me needing to push.

Everything began to fall into place.

It was like He whispered, “Now that I have your full surrender...

watch what I can do.”

I Understand Where
You're Coming From

Because I’ve been exactly where you are.

You might feel like you’re doing everything “right”… but still sense something’s missing.
You’re moving, achieving, producing — yet underneath it all, you’re tired. Disconnected. piritually numb.
You love God, but you feel distant from Him.
You have vision, but no peace.
You’ve mastered survival… but deep down, you long to actually live.
I know the ache of feeling misaligned while trying to appear strong.
I know what it’s like to feel spiritually dry — even while serving, building, and pouring into others.
I know the confusion of asking, “God, I’m doing what You asked… so why does it still feel off?”

But now I can see:

What felt like detours were actually divine setups.
What I thought was delay was actually preparation.
Everything I was building in my own strength — every skill, title, launch, and lesson — was never wasted.

“And we know that in all things God works together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose.” — Romans 8:28

It just wasn’t meant to serve the world’s plan.

It was meant to serve His Kingdom.

God didn’t just change my direction.

He reclaimed everything I thought was mine — every gift, every experience, every plan —
and reassigned it under His purpose.

How I Can Help You

If you're here, it's probably not because you're searching for another strategy.

You're searching for something deeper. Something real.

I don’t offer quick fixes or cookie-cutter plans.

I walk with people — men and women — who are ready to move from striving to surrender.

People who are done performing and ready to realign with the life God actually designed for them.

Here's what it can look like:

Helping you quiet the noise so you can finally hear God clearly again
Guiding you through realignment — spiritually, emotionally, and practically
Supporting you in rebuilding your life on a foundation of faith, trust, and obedience
Equipping you to break free from burnout, perfectionism, and worldly pressure
Showing you how to activate what God placed inside of you — without striving to earn it

Whether you're taking your first step back toward God…

Or you know He’s calling you into something deeper but you're unsure how to move forward…

This is the space where your realignment can begin.

And I would be honored to walk with you as you rediscover the clarity, connection, and calling that only come through true Kingdom alignment.

The Roles I Walk In

At the center of everything I do,

I am a Faith Ambassador

A person committed to living, leading, and loving like Christ.

Someone surrendered to God's will, walking in step with the Spirit, and called to help others do the same.

This is more than a role—it's my response to the Great Commission:

"Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."

— Matthew 28:19–20

Through this core identity, I walk in two distinct expressions:

🔹 Methodical Mentor

I help people walk through the process of realignment step by step.

Spiritual growth can feel abstract, but God is also a God of divine order.

I bring structure and strategy to the process so it becomes both Spirit-led and actionable.

🔹 Kingdom Strategist

I help individuals and families align every area of life—vision, structure, decision-making, and legacy—with God’s agenda.

This is about building intentionally, not for worldly success, but for Kingdom impact.

Why You Can Trust Me

The truth is, I didn’t end up here because I figured it all out.

I ended up here because I stopped trying to.

I didn’t choose this path to teach.

God allowed me to live it—so I could walk it first, break in it first, and then extend my hand to others from a place of understanding, not theory.

Everything I build now—every framework, every rhythm, every step—I build first in my own life.

I use it to guide my home.
I live it for my children.
I steward it for my family.
This isn’t just content. This is covenant.

So if you’re wondering whether you can trust me…

Know this:

You’re not putting your trust in me.
You’re trusting the God who realigned my life — and who is more than able to realign yours too.
Because this journey is never about perfection.
It’s about obedience.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."

— Proverbs 3:5–6
