Pause. Breathe. Pray.

No better way to start - or live - our days💕🙏☀️

This morning in my prayer time I was reminded that trials of any kind are an opportunity to refine us, and our faith. It’s understandable when things happen to us or others that we would question God - or even if there is God. Yet time after time when I am tried, from small trials to bigger ones, I am reminded that being in prayer with God is the one thing that brings me the comfort, peace and wisdom I seek. Those doesn’t stay forever, and honestly I can leave my prayer time and in two minutes I am uprooted again from the grounding love of God, His Word and His truth. That’s why this practice is that, a practice. A moment by moment, day by day practice to pause my natural reactions, breathe myself into the present moment, and pray, inviting God in to help me.

I share this today in case you too need to bring calm into the storms of your thoughts or life. I invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.

May we put these three words into practice over and over and over again to help us be rooted in God’s love and truth instead of the unsettling thoughts or trials we find ourselves, or others, in.

With love and hope,
Shawn
