Alright, ladies, as we close out this week, I want to share something I was really convicted on this week I found myself choosing what felt urgent or pressing instead of doing what God clearly told me to do first. Whether it was sending an email, reaching out to someone, or focusing on a specific task, I kept allowing other things to take my attention. And in that moment, I felt the weight of it. Because I teach this same principle to my children. Do what you’re told to do first! And I realized… I wasn’t doing that with God. At the same time, I was reading through the book of Daniel and was reminded that one day, we will all have to give an account. And it made me pause and ask myself: I can confidently say I’m showing up for my family. I can say I’m doing well in certain areas. But how confident am I in how I’m stewarding what God has called me to build in this season? So as we reflect on this week, I want to invite you into something deeper than just “what got done.” Ask yourself: • What did God place on my heart to do this week? • Did I do that first? • Or did I let other things take their place? And if the week didn’t go how you planned, there is still time. Not to do everything. But to take one step. Our reminder this week was simple: Even 25 focused minutes is progress. That could look like: • working through a lesson • making progress on what you’re building • or even taking time to understand what might be holding you back through the Enneagram assessment Every step matters. Every step is stewardship. Take a few minutes today and do the thing you’ve been putting off. Then come back and share one thing you moved forward 👇🏽 Let’s finish the week aligned.

Ladies, as we step into this week, I want to share something that came up for me over the last few days. I just got back from a mini vacation with my family, and if I’m being honest, it was really hard for me to fully step away. Before we left, I was trying to get a few more things done. While I was away, I kept thinking about what I could send or finish so that nothing would be waiting on me when I got back. And in the middle of that, I felt the Lord gently remind me to just enjoy the time for what it was. To actually rest. That moment stayed with me, because I realized how easy it is for me to move through time like everything is urgent. Even the time that’s meant to restore me. I had set that time aside for my family, for rest, for a break… and still felt the pull to get ahead or clear things off my plate. Not because I had to, but because it felt like I should. And I know that may not be everyone, but if you’ve ever felt that tension, you know what I mean. That quiet pressure to keep going, even when it’s time to pause. But we’re reminded in the Word that the Sabbath was made for us, not the other way around. Rest isn’t something we earn after everything is done. It’s something we’re given so we can be sustained in what we’re called to do. And if we don’t learn how to receive it that way, it’s very easy to burn out trying to carry everything at once. So as we step into this week, I’m not even going to tell you to do more. I just want to encourage you to pay attention. Pay attention to how you’re holding your time. Because for me, I realized that the urge to keep working wasn’t really about productivity. It was about not trusting that what didn’t get done could wait. What would it look like for you to release that this week? To trust that you can come back to it? To be fully present in the moment you’re actually in? This week, I’m focusing less on doing more and more on being where I am. When it’s time to work, I’ll work. When it’s time to rest, I’m learning to let that be enough.
