One Minute to Glory

Are you stress-free and productive?

Published 7 months ago • 1 min read

We live in such a time as this...

In today's world, it’s easy to let our time, focus, and energy slip away—like the world is conspiring to steal them. Every notification, every swipe, and every distraction seems designed to keep us from what truly matters. And when we’re not intentional, it doesn’t just take away our productivity—it can slowly erode our relationship with God, too, Reader.
​
But here’s the truth: if we’re not ahead of the game, it’ll continue to rob us. I’ve been rethinking how I spend my time, especially as I realign my purpose with my work—re-entering real estate, and integrating that with what God is calling me to do. But even with these new professional steps, I haven’t forgotten who I am. I’m still God’s daughter, still a wife, and still a mother. There’s a responsibility on my shoulders—not just to make an impact at work but to show my children who God is through my actions.
​
So, I’m intentional. I’m setting boundaries, staying focused, and recognizing that there’s a bigger calling on our lives than just getting things done. And if you’re feeling like the digital world is eating away at your time and focus, I want to invite you to listen to this week’s podcast episode with Erick Vargas. We dive into how we can reclaim peace, joy, and productivity in a world that pulls at us from every direction.
​
Also, don’t miss yesterday’s episode, where we tackle the question of how to feel confident in God, especially if you grew up without encouragement. The truth is, our childhoods shape how we see ourselves, but God’s truth is bigger than any story our pasts have written.
​
Take a listen to both episodes, and let’s explore how we can stay rooted in our purpose, even in this distracted world.

​Question for You:​
How do you guard your time and focus in a world that seems intent on distracting you? What are the ways you ensure that your relationship with God stays at the center? Reply to this email with your answer! I'd love to hear from you!
​
​
God is doing something in you. Can you see it,Reader? Pay attention this week to the little ways He’s moving in your life. You are part of His bigger plan, and He’s with you every step of the way.

Episode 113: Joy after Sorrow: Processing Grief with Dr Jerry Woodbridge

We grieve because we love... Even in sorrow, God's joy can shine through—like the laughter of children Do you ever feel as though you carry a suitcase filled with grief—moments of loss, disappointment, and sorrow, from the very beginning of life, Reader? Have you ever noticed how the weight of grief can slowly build, shaping the way we experience life? Instead of moving through life with the lightness and joy of children at play, we become burdened—disconnected from ourselves, from one...

When waiting feels impossible... Patience is cultivated in the quiet spaces—around the table, in prayer, and in the waiting. The other night, while cooking with my husband, I couldn’t help but notice how different we are in the kitchen, Reader. He likes things quick and simple—done in no time. But I come from Europe, where preparing a meal is never rushed. From selecting fresh ingredients to imagining the dish to slow prep and cooking, everything takes time. Even breakfast growing up was...

The doubts you feel are stealing God's work... "As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful" Matthew 13:22 Have you ever caught yourself holding tightly to control or doubting God’s plans because it feels safer than trusting Him fully, Reader? Even this week, I had one of those moments. Monday came, and I started feeling anxious about work. I found myself questioning:...
