Dear God in heaven, distractions constantly come at me. When I try to pause and focus on You, my mind seems to be filled with dozens of things I need to do. I realize that I truly need only one thing to focus on You. Please help me push away every distraction and noise so I can hear only Your voice that says, "Come unto Me, and I will give you rest." Amen.

To humble yourself does not mean to have low self-esteem. To humble yourself does not mean to suffer from rejection. To humble yourself means to submit your heart and ways to God. Follow God's word. Follow His way of doing things. Let His pattern establish your path.

“I've never seen anyone's life get better by complaining about reality, I've seen it get better by accepting reality as it is and then making personal decisions to make it better.”

Expect to have hope rekindled. Expect your prayers to be answered in wondrous ways. The dry seasons in life do not last. The spring rains will come again.

Real rest feels like every cell is thanking you for taking care of you. It’s calm, not full of checklists and chores. It’s simple: not multitasking; not fixing broken things.

The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them.
