Prayer for productivity and 5 Helpful Tools To Fight Stress & Overwhelm!
Today we are going to say a prayer for productivity and focus!
Why?
Because, for me, it feels like every day whizzes by faster than the day before it. And our to-do lists get longer and longer no matter how many items we check off of them.
So I need to ask God for help in focusing on what’s important in life and praying for godly productivity is a perfect way to start!
As Christian women, we want to be productive with the time God has given us and focus on doing the things He would have us do.
We know how precious time is and it can be frustrating when we don’t to use it as wisely as we know we should.
I’ve always felt like time was getting away from me.
Like I never had enough time. Like I was always running behind and always late.
But lately, I’ve been really getting into learning about productivity, time management, and goal setting.
It’s really helped me look at time in a different way and I’ve made some changes that have really made a difference in my life.
I really hope that my tips will help.
Since learning more about productivity, I’ve been on time (more often than not), I have more time to work on my blogs and pursue my goals, and I feel like my time with my family and friends is more enjoyable because I’m learning to live in the moment.Continue reading
If there was ever a time when we need Bible verses to overcome anxiety, it is now!
Why? Because an estimated 40 million Americans are suffering from anxiety.
And while there should be no Christian women counted in that number I know for sure that there are (I am one of them).
Why shouldn’t any of us struggle with anxiety?
Because Jesus told us about a million different times not to be anxious ( give or take a few times).
Yet so often we still can’t overcome the constant worry and doubt that plagues so many of us.
So I thought it would be good to have a devotional and remind ourselves of 9 major things the Bible says about overcoming anxiety.

Today we are going to talk about affirmations to stop procrastinating (and so much more)! Why?
Because you know the Lord is calling you to do something different with your life. Not just like buying a new Bible or praying a little bit longer or trying that new Sunday school class.
No, He wants you to do something big. Radical. Scary (yikes). And he’s been wanting you to do it for a while now…like maybe even years.
And you keep saying to yourself that one day you’ll actually do it…
But you’re too scared to jump out there in faith and start whatever it is that he’s been wanting you to do.
So you procrastinate because your anxiety is off the charts.
You let everything including the kitchen sink (hey the dishes have to get done, amirite?) get in the way of following God’s plan for your life (ask me how I know).
So today I hope to give you some encouragement! If you have a God-given dream and you can’t stop putting it off, then I think the two articles in this series will help you.
I’m going to share with you some actionable tips & positive affirmations to help you overcome procrastination and how to use them in your journal so you can finally make your God-given dreams a reality!Continue reading
