Week 1 – Hidden With Him

As we begin to slow down this week, may we experience a sort of reset — where our minds are reset on the things above rather than the things of this earth.

To be hidden with Christ is to find safety in His shadow, peace in His presence, and strength in the quiet places away from the noise of this world. As we enter our personal secret place, we discover that stillness is not emptinessβ€”it is where God meets us, renews us, and becomes our steady refuge.

So let’s get started! I invite you to commit to giving the Lord 15 minutes a day to follow through on the scripture readings, prayers and challenges in this study. God’s Word is alive and active! He will transform you as you turn to his son Jesus, the one who laid his life down for you on the cross, so you can lay your life down and find rest in Him.


πŸ•―οΈ Week 1 – Challenge

Go buy an extra-large candle and light your candle every day in your home.  Each time the glimmer of the candle catches your eye, slow down, pray and give thanks.

I will be starting mine in the morning but you can start yours at dinner time or whenever is convenient for you.  I will be placing mine in the kitchen – the main hub of my home.  Let’s make our homes feel like a warm hug and a sweet haven all month long!

When we do not take the time to tend to our own souls – we have nothing left to give to others. 

So many times I have found myself busy and running on empty and then I snap – in a moment of frustration and weariness I say or do things that I would never do if I was more rested and connected with the Lord.

πŸ“Œ And so this month – let’s be intentional!

Open your journal – or pull out a pen and paper and begin.  As you set your pen to the paper – wait on the Lord.  Seek God and ask him to show you all the ways he has shown himself to you lately.

Give thanks to God for both the big and small blessings in your life.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
(Psalm 136:1)
